Bearded Tits at Farlington Marshes.....

Wednesday 2nd January 2008

We were in Chichester to-day, and on the way home we called at Farlington Marshes for a quick twenty minutes birding.

I must admit it wasn't the best weather for birdwatching, freezing cold, cloudy and windy, so I didn't bother taking the camera with me.

Because of the windy weather, I didn't think we would see any bearded tits, but what do I know?? Thanks to them being very vocal, we quickly located them in the middle section of the reedbeds. We only saw three this time, and not as good views as the other day, but they made my day........

44. moorhen
45. brent goose
46. teal duck
47. pintail duck
48. shelduck
49. curlew
50. redshank
51. black-tailed godwit
52. little egret
53. bearded tit
