Pulborough Brooks again.

Arriving at just after midday my wife and I decided to have a bite to eat outside  when suddenly a Cuckoo flew in and settled briefly in a dead tree just to the right of us. 



As they say.....its just a matter of being in the right place at the right time!
 
....and then, just as we were making our way to the Zig Zag, a Garden Warbler burst into song just by the side of us!





They are not usually that obliging!

From Winpenny hide apart from the usual collection of Canada Geese a couple of Avocets were present and a superb Grey Plover in summer plumage.


A distant Hobby from West Meads was too far away for a photo but nevertheless all in all a very pleasant visit to Pulborough.
 Regretfully, only one Nightingale was heard on this occasion.
