Nice pix of the terns.

I have a wader identification challenge for everyone. One of Owen's pix shows a Ruff amongst the other waders. Which picture is it in and which bird is it?

Cheers
Mike

I see the Ruff in picture 3.

It is right at the right margin.

My mini-quiz was answered correctly by guest. The Ruff is the right hand wader in the third photo.

Angus is also correct that it is dirfferent to the bird in the middle of the photo - that one is a Spotted Redshank.

Cheers
