Ingrid and I went for a walk along the Adur between Coombes and Botolphs but soon aborted due to a series of sharp showers, only noting eight Redshanks and a Meadow Pipit in the short amount of time we were there.
We moved on to Widewater, which we figured would be less muddy, where seven Red-breasted Mergansers showed well, along with three Little Egrets and a Little Grebe.
