Sunday Afternoon Wanderings 31st Jan.

Started off at the Flagpoles where there 2 Great Crested Grebes today & a good count of 93 Common Gulls with smaller amounts of Herring , Black Headed & 2 Greater Black Backs.
Next port of call was Heathfield where a Woodcock was flushed down the lane & on the pit were 7 Tufted Ducks & 3 Mute Swans of which 1 was a young bird keeping as far as it could away from the 2 Adults.
On the way back through Jordanston a look in the field opposite the Church revealed a flock of between 25 - 30 Stock Doves feeding in the stubble.
Last site for the walk was a quick look below Harbour Village at Goodwick , a Jack Snipe was flushed in the boggy area close to the derelict building which as described in all the books decided it was quite safe to land literally no more than 20 yards away !
