Swifts galore !!
Never have I seen so many Swifts over Pagham Beach and the Lagoon as there were this morning. For at least an hour and a quarter from 6.15a.m. there were hundred upon hundreds of Swifts feeding and swooping low over the beach and water as they all generally moved west in a broad front. The sky was full of them and there were probably a thousand or more of them until 7.30am when they had virtually all disappeared. During the morning there was a trickle of birds going west but nothing on the scale of earlier.... this was exceptional and will remain in my memory bank for a long time!

Hi Trevor
Will the results of their investigations be made public?
Thought you might also be interested in another visitor I saw on a recent trip to Pagham Harbour. A community Police Officer checking the north wall, footpath down to the lagoon, and spit. Also challenged a suspicious looking character out on the mud.
Picture on my blog if you are interested.
