New Brighton

As it is hard to gauge from locals, I made New Brighton my destination to see what it was like on a high tide. Even an early start was too late to see any retreating waders as the water was already crashing against the sea wall. I was hoping to get Purple Sandpipers at Wallasey Lifeguard Station, a good place for all budding photographers, but to late was the cry, but not to worry there's always tomorrow. However, all was not lost as anything that could fly had taken refuge on the pontoon at the Marina, including the Purple Sands.
