RED-BREASTED FLYCATCHER - Climping

RED BREASTED FLYCATCHER at Climping beach today. Originally seen from the car park with the local tit flock, and then again from the footpath that runs between the Atherington Pools up to the sea front. A great bird for West Sussex. Very poor light so sorry for the very very noisy images :(



The mass of people - these are just the ones to the right of me, 20+ to the left. 

Red - breasted Flycatcher

Not expecting to go out birding today however when I saw that a Red Breasted Flycatcher had been seen as close as Climping I had to go for it! Me and dad got ready to see this smashing bird arrived at around 1:25 pm and dad set of to walk the dogs while I was went in a separate direction to see this little beauty! As soon as I arrived it was on show though very illusive! But  a smashing bird when it put  itself on show! Left at around 2:10 pm as the bird showed itself several times by now but before I left I waited another 20 minutes but the bird  didn't show and as far as I know it hasn't shown since 1:50 pm.
