It really was a proper Summer, right up to the start of this month with temperatures still reaching 30c. Work overtook my ability to fully enjoy the weather, and only a couple of morning birding sessions have been managed, so a summary of these is all I'm going here but from now on to try and keep up to date.
A walk around Pagham Harbour on the bank holiday weekend Sunday had highlights of
2 Whinchats, a
Redstart, 2 Lesser Whitethroat several
Wheatears , 2 Common Sandpipers and
1 Greenshank.
Then 2 trips to Selsey had highlights of
9 Balearic Shearwaters (in one flock) and then on 7th, one
Black Tern, 1 Little Stint and
2 Arctic Skuas.
