21st November 2017

It was a wet start to a day that featured increasingly strong south-west winds. Sightings included one Water Rail, a Woodcock, three Purple Sandpipers at South Landing, a first-winter Mediterranean Gull at Thornwick Pools and two Richard’s Pipits on the cliff top north of Thornwick.
