Piddinghoe and Splash Point 9/3/10

Had a search for the 2 Garganey that had been present since Friday just north of Piddinghoe near Dean's Farm. Unfortunately there was no sign and there wasn't much else to compensate for their absence, just a few Moorhen, Coot and Mallard.

Moving on to Splash Point to catch up on some yearticks. The first tick was a Fulmar flying around the cliffs, the second was a lovely Black Redstart around the sewage buildings (i think a 1w male) and the third were 4 Kittiwakes around the groyne. Sussex Yearlist now up to 134 and Uk yearlist up to 147, with the recent additions of Goshawk and Willow Tit.
