The adult BAIRD'S SANDPIPER is still present on Chainbridge Scrape area of the Idle Valley NR for it's 4th day at least. It represents the second record for Nottinghamshire and the Idle Valley Nature Reserve.
NB: Anyone not yet been to see this bird should do so ASAP. Essential management work which was due to take place on the Chainbridge Scrape area of the IVNR, was immediately postponed last week when the Baird's Sandpiper was located. Unfortunately it may have to take place as early as Tuesday next. 10th August 2010, as the contractor has other commitments for using the equipment required to do this important management work. The work area is some distance from the favoured area of the Baird's Sandpiper but the work will involve/create some noise but hopefully little or no disturbance.
