Frampton Marsh...

Had a few productive hours, photographing around Boston. I noticed a pair of peregrines flying around the tower of the Stump; inside there was a screen linked to a camera which offered visitors a good view of the nest. Then I called in at Frampton Marsh, an RSPB reserve, without expecting to see very much, so was pleasantly surprised to see a couple of spoonbills, and half a dozen ruff (with one coming out of its elaborate breeding plumage). Best of all was a pair of spotted redshanks: almost black in their summer plumage.
