On Friday afternoon I picked up a colour ringed Ringed Plover at Pywipe, I had a col rd bird there previously from Snettisham, but this bird's combination echoed that of a juv Curlew Sandpiper we had at Alkborough last year and a Rock Pipit I found at Barton last October; all were in fact ringed at the same location in Norway see below; a good species range
