Redshank (Tringa totanus) today. Lovely idea to have curlew and redshank on consecutive days. 'Wader roost' coming soon should be highly evocative of the brackish, muddy, estuarine environments I love

Yes indeed, and MH-G is a huge improvement on CW. Nice that they gave the gig to a sound recordist, but he wasn't impressive.

It's the kind of quirky type of broadcast that is a real speciality of the BBC. A fantastic idea beautifully executed

Ducks and geese might make a reasonable deathmatch. Shoveller [anas clypeata] v/s barnacle goose [branta leucopsis] has the hallmarks of a decent dust-up

Most impressed by the bar tailed god wit this morning. Definitely one for the long haul.

We had barnacle goose yesterday. Not really a player in this arena.

Good spot, Greppers - said Bar-tailed godwit has recorded 11000km in 9 days. Makes certain training logs on Fetch look rather limp in my view.....

11,000 km in 9 days is a decent run out. Barwit ftw
