GORING GAP - Pretty quiet around the fields, patch quality in the form of a Yellowhammer that flew up from the pumping station area and headed off north east, a smart male Stonechat appears to be a new bird in and a noticeable eastward movement involving 23 Mediterranean Gulls was taken place. Other noteable sightings included 7 Greenfinch by the pumping station and a trickle of Meadow Pipits overhead and 2 Pied Wagtails NB
