Lewes County Hall 28/5/08

ALPINE SWIFT - 1

Never saw this bird in flight as it kept all it's time clinging to the wall of the county hall.

Newhaven Tide Mills 10/5/08

SHORT-TOED LARK - 1

A very distinct individual seen only briefly but relevant features seen well. It showed within 5 minutes of my arrival before completely disappearing for much of that day, even though we saw where, or at least where we thought it went.

Sidlesham Ferry Pool 19/4/08

This fantastic LESSER YELLOWLEGS showed well from the hide at the Ferry Pool. It mainly consorted with Redshanks close to the road. Light was poor so horrid photos were taken.
