A desolate desert!

I met a local birder this morning and he asked what had happened to all the birds...he described Pagham harbour as desolate! Compared to the last 6 months, it is! Where have all the birds gone? We spent a little time searching but could only come up with 2 Wheatears, 5 Brent Geese a few Godwits and a single Whimbrel....well that was nice anyway!
It can only get better but for friends visiting last Saturday it WAS a bit disappointing after all the many birding highlights of the past few months!!

Hopefully, it can only get better...watch this space. Pagham always surprises and who knows whats just around the corner!!
