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.

| 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. |

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