Saturday 14th April


Decided to do a few spots between Chichester and Selsey today we started at Ivey Lake part of the Chichester gravel pits not long after we started our walk we had a good number of Blackcaps and Willow Warblers and plenty of common species as we returned to the car we found a nice Redstart then had a Garden Warbler in the top of the trees showing very well for a brief time then Carol found a Pied Flycatcher but I did not get on it, We then had a look at the Ferry Pool and a short walk along the tram way back to the car park after which We  headed for Selsey where we sat at the bill and had lunch while here I found a Black Throated Diver on the sea and a Arctic Skua flew by, After a short stop for some shopping it was then onto Church Norton where we had  a look in the church yard not a lot going on we then moved on to the shore line and back to the car on route I found another Pied Flycatcher so it would seem there had been a fall overnight while in the church yard we had a Peregrine fly over head so ending another days birding
