| Sighting Description |
Highlights of the day 'race' (Monday 4th May) that my brother and I do annually (public transport only) included 2 poss 3 Turtle Doves on NW Thorney (also 5 hares and 2 roe deer there), 2 Wheatears at Sidlesham Ferry, Gannet and Common Scoters off of Selsey Bill, 1 Tree Pipit, 4 Stonechats, 5 Willow Warblers and 1 Garden Warbler at Iping and Stedham and likely breeding Grey Wagtail near there; also our best-ever views of a definite Willow Tit at an undisclosed site - great views for over five minutes, and the bird even ran through the full range of calls and song - not often you get that degree of helpfulness! Our day total was 95. |
