A Pectoral Sandpiper at Pulborough Brooks was a good excuse for a wander on Saturday. The bird showed well through a scope from Jupp's although it was abit distant for photos. Also had a look for a Purple Hairstreak to no avail but did manage a Brown Hairstreak and a cracking "helice" Clouded Yellow. A Raven cronked over and a Small Copper fluttered by:
