Waders being reclassified on the IUCN red list, including Dunlin and Turnstone moving from "Least Concern" to "Near Threatened"
@sarahdalgulls that sucks. I haven't been cycling along the prom often enough of late to know how the turnstone numbers are faring, but there are usually quite a lot along there.
@amcewen it really does, they are such lovely, familiar birds. The reclassification is to do with long term decline over many years -
