The Climping Gap remains one of the last undeveloped sites along the coast in West Sussex. This site is dedicated to Birds seen in and around the Climping Gap area by myself and a few die hard friends, that live in the area and have been birding the local patch for decades. (Please email your sighting's to lobas@btinternet.com or Tweet to @BirdsofClimping).

A brief visit for me around the patch this morning produced the usual fare offshore from the car park, with c.60 Gannet, 70 Brent Geese, 20 Common Scoter, 5 Great Crested Grebe and small numbers of both Sanderling and Turnstone on the tideline. A flock of c.80 Skylark in the fields at the bottom of Longwood and a single Mediterranean Gull flew west there, the highlight being 2 Bullfinch at the bottom of the Mill path.
