Pagham Harbour/North wall


A pleasant morning's birding today on the north wall.
On the breach pool were 30 black-tailed godwits,2 little ringed plovers,2common sandpipers and a female ruff. Out in the harbour there were 20 little egrets,12 g.herons,30+curlew,and a good number of g.black backed gulls.Lots of sand martins, swallows and willow warblers moving through.The young male peregrine was chasing after a flock of pigeons over the harbour but failed to catch his dinner and headed back towards chichester.
