Hengistbury Head

I visited Hengistbury Head over the Christmas period with the intention of photographing the purple sandpipers I'd seen there in the past.  Luckily about 12 sandpipers were in their usual place on the beach groynes  and the light was good for photography.  There were also a lot of turnstones and a rock pipit feeding along the harbour shore.
