Dotterel at Loop

I was back to Loop Head again this afternoon in search of waders. I met up with Neal Warnock and we both walked the Fodry at Loop Head in search of North American vagrants.  On the small Lough there was a Spotted Redshank which is unusual in itself. We did manage to dig out this adult Dotterel which showed well in a field close to the Lighthouse. Hard to believe this is only a 7th county record.
