Getting up at a ridiculously early time for a seawatch at Selsey Bill was to no avail as little showed, the best being the regular Long-Tailed Duck and six Great Northern Divers on the sea. Similarly, the other sites on the Manhood Peninsula were pretty quiet, just a few Whimbrels at Church Norton and the Ring Ouzel at Warner Lane. Highlight was however a nice drake Garganey on the Ferry Pool:



Then it was off on an excursion for the Tree Sparrow at Titchfield Haven which showed well after a bit of a wait:




Also about were a few Black Swans and a motley collection of Turnstones:
