Good coverage today around the patch with combined totals resulting in at least 4 Firecrest, 80+ Chiffchaff, 15 Stonechat, 2 Reed Warbler, Whitethroat, 70 Pied Wagtail, 3 Yellow Wagtail, 10 Reed Bunting with lots of Swallow & House Martin moving through east. (RG, CN, OM)

 With Finches on the move early and hundreds of Meadow Pipits in the fields the day looked promising, but eventually just fizzled out when the sun broke through. Swallow and House Martin continue to trickle through in less numbers, 22 Chiffchaff, 3 Blackcap, 5 Rock Pipit, in the setaside10 Stonechat, and a Kingfisher again at Atherington.

Late news from yesterday with a Pied Flycatcher in elm's at Littlehampton cemetery on the east side. (CJ)

A couple of visit's to the different areas of the patch didn't result in anything special with 2 Firecrest being the highlight, at First wood & Bailiffscourt. 

 Good coverage today with little reward, but saw thousand of House Martin streaming through west with hundreds of Swallow, the Merlin still hunting around the campsite, and noticeable increase in numbers of Magpie, Jay and Robins.
