On a very cold and frosty morning 6 of us met at Arundel, first stop was at the Water Woods where we found a couple of Firecrests, Goldcrests, Marsh Tit and Coal Tit. From here we headed to
Iping Common

Amoung the trees we found Reed Buntings, Gold and Chaffinches, a stunning Yellow Hammer,
On entering the clearing Simon found the Great Grey Shrike which gave great views through the scope

From here we went to West Dean Wood where the pair of Little Owls were out warming themselves.

A walk up to Monkton Farm produced the usual woodland birds, but back on the corner near Stapleash Farm after some waiting we had 6 Hawfinches.
Heading back to Arundel we called in to Barnham Brooks seeing the adult and 3 juvenile Whooper Swans, then at Arundel the Bewick and 3 Black Swans
