A sultry summer's day. Phil and I met up at Pulborough Brooks, where we were greeted by two
Woodlarks - one singing - over the field by the visitor centre. Most of the action was on the North Brooks from the Hanger Viewpoint, where we had two
Green Sandpipers, a
Little Ringed Plover, a female
Mandarin with four juveniles, two
Stonechats, three
House Martins, three
Redshanks, six
Avocets, nine
Lapwings, two
Wigeon and three
Egyptian Geese. Along the trails we encountered a handful of
Nuthatches,
Bullfinches and
Treecreepers, and a
Grey Wagtail flew over.
