2 January 2010-Iping Common

stopped of to let the dog out on the way back from Christmas Holidays in Worcester. At Iping Common, a fantastic heath in West Sussex, I didn't see much, just a Bullfinch, 3 Coal Tits and a few commoner birds, but it got my sussex year list on a decent start with 18 species. Saw Starling, Black-headed Gull Lapwing, Canada Goose, Rook, Carrion Crow, and Herring Gull from the road on the way back to Seaford, which took my year list up to 25.
