Dunlin - MyrsnipeCalidris alpina
Kärrsnäppa - Almindelig Ryle - Suosirri  - Becasseau variable



Dunlin are extremely rare during the spring but very regular in the autumn. The vast majority are seen on direct passage - often during headwinds. The majority turn up during September.



The blue line shows number of visits, the orange one the number of visits when Dunlin have been recorded and the green one (numbers on right hand axis) shows the average numbers I have recorded in any three day period.
