CASPIAN TERN-SANDBACH FLASHES-6TH JULY 2024

News broke this morning that a Caspian tern had been found at Sandbach flashes.This was a new bird for me in Cheshire and Wirral having missed the Acre nook bird back in 2013 due to being on hoilday.

Acre Nook bird

After a good run over to Sandbach and many a phonecall on the way to see if the bird was still there,I arrived and got put straight on the bird by my good friend Fred ferne,at last I had gripped this bird back,it had took 11 years!
