Margie and I had a very pleasant wander around RSPB Pulborough Brooks yesterday, bit chilly but the predicted showers held off, out of the wind it was reasonably warm!! Best sighting was an Adder, which did it's best to hide behind several blades of grass! Redshank Porn, Avocets and several singing Blackcaps among the other highlights! Few of our pics below! As normal mine are birds Margie's are the rest unless otherwise stated!
