Common Sandpiper, Roe Deer

Very quiet today.  The best thing I saw was a Common Sandpiper which flew from the Pavilion area towards the reserve and promptly disappeared.

In the evening I went looking for Simon's Whinchat at Shaw Moss but there was no sign in a cold wind.  A couple of Roe Deer clambering across a stone wall was about the most interesting sighting.
