The grebe is far clearer in this shot. We did not actually see a blackcap, but they are apparently somewhere about.
We saw the brent geese, but not the yellowhammer.
We heard the skylarks
In fact, there were quite a few different birds to see on this excursion, although it had mainly been chosen for the exercise and relaxation points.
We stopped for a picnic lunch and spotted a grey heron roaming the sands.
On our return we discovered a reedbed hide. If we had known there were public toilets and a bird hide, we might have come to the marina/Birdham area before.
we didnt see the tufted ducks!!
Those shots of the beach are great. Hopefully the tufted ducks and yellowhammers and blackcaps will show up next time.
