17th June, 2014 Ashdown Forest

JFC: Sussex life list 355, Uk and Irish life list 525, World List c5,500.

We went out this evening to have another look at the superb Short-toed Eagle just present about 20 miles from our house. For the first hour it was sat almost out of view in a pine tree, but then took off and gave some excellent flight views, before landing on top of a pine tree.
Also good numbers of Redpolls and 2 Spotted Flycatchers.
