A late start today!
Tarring Neville, Newhaven, East Sussex
- I made the short journey to Tarring Neville and had an instant success with the 2 Cattle Egrets that showed well in the field adjacent to the west side of the A26. They were about 30 metres from the grazing cattle.
Pett Level, East Sussex
- Next stop was Pett Level where I quickly found the Bean Geese, close to the Canada Geese.
- I returned at the end of the day and I was directed by a visiting London birder to the Pink-footed Geese away in the distance.
- There was also a small flock of Barnacle Geese which were resting on the grassy ground.
Camber, East Sussex
- The splendid Red-necked Grebe on the small pool just before you get to Camber was a welcome bonus.
Kerton Road, Dungeness, Kent
- The Stejneger's Stonechat was very active today in the area to the west of the quarry. There was a particularly keen photographer who was constantly disturbing the bird as he tried to get the perfect image.
Another fabulous day, this time much nearer home. My year list total is creeping up and now stands at 63.
