Sidlesham and Church Norton

No where near as exciting as Liams day today very jealous but very glad he saw a Red-rumped swallow! Anyway stared of at the Ferry Pool at Sidlesham where there was very little, just 60+ Lapwing and 30+ Teal, with drakes coming into full plumage. On the way down to Church Norton there were 15+ Blackcap (most of which were male) , 30+ Chiffchaffs, 1 Greenshank calling, 1 Avocet in the harbour an adult female marsh harrier made an appearance over the harbour putting all the waders up! Also 3 Common Buzzards and 1 Whinchat  in the west fields. At church norton there were 10+ Goldcrests in the church yard (unfortunately firecrest) 6+ Siskins overhead and another Whinchat along the shore line with 3 Stonechats.
