10/10/2014. A Tawny Pipit at Newhaven, Tidemills

Friday 10th October 2014
Tidemills, Newhaven

I received a call from Paul alerting me to the appearance of the rare Tawny Pipit at Tidemills.  Apparently it had been there since Monday.  After finishing shopping at Tunbridge Wells I dashed down and was rewarded with superb views.

It was another "lifer" for me.


Thanks Paul!

 
The Tawny Pipit was probably lost en-route from Europe or Asia to it's wintering grounds in NW Africa.
