An absolute pleasure to see this pectoral sandpiper just 10 minutes from my front door in Oxford today. Seeing this species is a first for me, which is hardly surprising seeing as only a handful of them are in the UK each year. Broadly speaking, they breed around the Arctic circle, including northern Canada and Siberia, from which areas they tend to migrate to winter in South America. This means its a great rarity to see one blown off course in the UK!
