Lesser Yellowlegs at RSPB Medmerry, Sussex

Wednesday 18th June 2025

RSPB Medmerry, Sussex

5 pm to 7 pm


Just a few days after our trip to Medmerry with the Ashdown Bird Group (ABG), a  Lesser Yellowlegs turned up!  

The last time one was seen in the area was 2008!  Late this afternoon, I decided to go for the "twitch".


The bird was showing well, if somewhat distant, as it foraged along the southern edges of the Stilt Pool, beyond the isthmus. 

The picture below was taken earlier in the day when the bird was closer.
