Rye Harbour Sightings

25th June 2009, Thursday

A visit to the viewpoint at dawn this morning found four Marsh Harrier, seven Bearded Tit, two Yellow Wagtail and a Turtle Dove purring from the trees around the viewpoint. In addition, a flock of about 60 Lapwing flushed from the islands on Castle Water by the harriers contained three Black-tailed Godwit, while at least five Little Egret and two Cetti’s Warbler were also present.
