Splash Point & Cuckmere Haven 1/5/05
Splash Point
Pomarine Skua - 14
Cuckmere Haven
After a successful sea watch, a call from Dick Gilmore soon saw us down the Cuckmere as a Black-winged Stilt was present. After an hour search, we eventually saw the Stilt and had great scope views.

Worthing P&P Golf Course 6/4/05
GREAT SPOTTED CUCKOO - 1
Twitched this bird with Chris Lowmas and Dick Gilmore after an unsuccessful visit at Splash Point only seeing 1 Great Skua.
On arrival, no sign of the bird though it had been seen early on. A walk around I glimpsed what I thought was the bird in question. A walk up the hill confirmed my suspicions and after seeing it in flight, the Cuckoo settled on a green and showed very well.

Splash Point - 2/4/2005
A crazy seawatch that provided the largest passage of Garganey ever recorded past Splash Point. The largest flock being a flock of 15 birds, whilst all flocks were observed moving close inshore, and I seem to remember a couple of flocks circling just offshore and continuing on their way.
Only highlights listed:
Whimbrel - 4
Avocet - 7
Velvet Scoter - 1
Garganey - 31
Eider - 6
Little Gull - 1
Obviously the Garganey passage was noted elsewhere, with Dungeness recording over 50 birds.
