BRAMBER BROOKS: I walked along the River Adur alongside Bramber Brooks, where I caught up with the juvenile Goosander which has been in the area, though it was very skittish and I only saw it in flight. There was also a Kingfisher, two Fieldfares, a Cetti's Warbler and a Reed Bunting. David Campbell

BROOKLANDS PARK: Five Teals (a pair and three drakes), a drake POCHARD, a scattering of Moorhens and Coots, and a fly-over Sparrowhawk. Steve Gilbert via SOS
GORING GAP: Stopping at Goring Gap produced nine Mediterranean Gulls and two Lesser Black-backed Gulls in the roost field, though there were only three Turnstones. David Campbell
SHOREHAM FORT: An adult Purple Sandpiper was on the jetty with 12 Turnstones. What was presumably the same female-type Black Redstart which was reported yesterday put in a brief appearance along the fenceline and a Rock Pipit was feeding. David Campbell
