ad summer plumaged Purple Sandpier at Ness Point

On Sunday 14th July, in the early evening, following a tweet that Andrew E had seen a sp Purple Sand. I parked up and no sooner had I walked out that I could hear the wonderful call of a Purple Sandpiper and saw this fine bird, an adult in full summer plumage perched on one of the defence rocks and it was looking around and preening then went to sleep.
