Yesterday evening I drove back down to Sussex to spend the weekend here. So first thing, I went down to Eastbourne seafront and was surprised to find myself alone at the Hume's site. The Hume's Leaf Warbler soon started calling, helpfully from directly above me, and continued to call and show sporadically during the half-hour I was there.
This afternoon during my lunch break, I quickly nipped to the Cuckmere gull flock and picked out two Caspian Gulls (a stunning adult and decent first-winter) and a Yellow-legged Gull.
