Pagham harbour ferry pool

Drove over to the west side of Pagham harbour today to see the spoonbill on the ferry pool.
The bird was resting near the back of the pool and spent most of its time standing on one leg with its head tucked under its wing.
Aswell as the spoonbill there was also an avocet feeding in the shallow edge of the ferry pool.
Saw my first willow warbler of the year in the bushes around the visitor's centre,it sang briefly as it flitted among the branches.
