20th November, 2020 Beachy Head

LP visited the Headland and had a small movement of Goldfinches and Redpolls, also 3 Dartford Warbler on the Headland, and RE was ringing in Whitbread Hollow and the highlights were 3 Firecrests, up to 30 Lesser Redpolls. and a Water Rail calling, which is our first since Feb 2018, this bird probably over-wintered.
