Seaford Head 16/7/14

The first session of the autumn for me today. As expected, not very much activity but the area looks very promising with plenty of growth along all the rides and the 'Gropper' field looking dense. Totals for the morning are:

Yellow Wagtail - 1
Whitethroat - 21
Lesser Whitethroat - 1
Blackcap - 2
Willow Warbler - 1
Reed Warbler - 3
Swift - 1
Cormorant - 24 - not that I've counted before, but this is probably the largest flock I've had fly over.

Reed Warbler in Hope Gap - a particularly rufous individual
