Sighting Description

A quick visit to Fishbourne this morning (en route elsewhere) to try for the Little Stint, and sure enough it soon showed. A Jack Snipe flushed from near the path, and on a fine morning the wildfowl and waders looked great. Then an unexpected double bonus; first 2 Green Sandpipers dropped in from the direction of the sewage works, then a Barnacle Goose was located amongst the Brent Goose flock. A rather distant and shaky digiscope record shot was just about obtained before the flock took flight and headed off E.
