Yesterday we had a fleeting glimpse of a female Black Redstart on the beach from our living room window. It was VERY fleeting...two or three seconds and it was gone...just long enough to note the firey red flash of the tail!
Today as I was in the Worthing area and had to kill a couple of hours I paid a brief visit to Pulborough Brooks. A Jay posed for a quick photo
before making off at speed!

....then it was down to Netleys hide and besides all the expected birds, the distinctive flight of a Little Gull albeit a long way off and virtually impossible to capture with a 100-400mm!
Just identifiable.

On the return a couple of male Bullfinches were nipping off the newly formed flower buds of a blackthorn but were most uncooperative and had no intention of posing for the camera!
Apart from that a few Chiffchaffs and much activity from Nuthatchs, Tits and Treecreepers but there was a definite 'feel' that Spring was approaching....at last!
(and I forgot to mention 2 Swallows and 6 Sand Martins from Jupps View)
