Eventually ended up at Southease this morning as I searched for somewhere Fog free! Walked the east bank of the river from the bridge towards Newhaven, highlight was a flock of Corn Buntings approximately 40 birds, singing Greenfinch, Skylarks, Reed Buntings and Cetti's Warbler, displaying Meadow Pipits, few Stonechats and a couple of squealing Water Rails. Only waders seen one Lapwing, one Redshank and a Common Sandpiper. Few pics below.

Meadow Pipit, several about saw a couple do a display, lots of singing Skylarks but none showed well enough for pics |

Small bird moving through the reeds. could it be? No sadly the tit was Blue rather that Penduline😢 |
 |
A bit of the Bunting flock, possibly come out of roost, on the return trip they had gone although heard a bit of song and picked out a couple of the birds out across the fields. |

Pretty sure this is a Rock Pipit, looks quite white underneath but don't think enough for a Water Pipit |

Grey Heron, only saw one the whole walk and no Little Egrets which is unusual for the area |

On returning home there were a couple of Long-tailed Tits in the garden which is always good!
