Re: Lesser Yellowlegs

This bird has been present at Thornham in north Norfolk since mid-January I believe.

The Lesser Yellowlegs is a north Amercian wader and a scarce visitor to the UK albeit recorded most years.

I have seen 2 in the UK .... 1 at East Tilbury in Essex in February 1999 and 1 at Amwell in Hertfordshire in October 2002.

I have to say that John has captured an excellent photo of the Thornham bird.
