BLACK-TAILED GODWITS at Foxcote
Two Black-tailed Godwits at Foxcote today. When I arrived there were two godwits hunched up asleep on the spit amongst a horde of Lapwings, and I took them to be the Bar-tailed reported earlier--and I texted Si Nicholls. However just as I had finished counting the Lapwings something spooked them. I didn't see the godwits fly, but they reappeared on the mud at the west end left of the hide when they could be seen to be Black-tailed (Phil Tizzard)
