Frogs and Turtles 10/6/13

Spent the afternoon looking at the Frog Orchids near Eastbourne where I counted 25 spikes.

The moderate SE wind then sent me down Splash Point where in 2.5 hours Bob and me saw:

Great Skua - 1
Sandwich Tern - 10
Common Scoter - 50
Mediterranean Gull - 7

Afterwards, with such a lovely evening, I cycled up to Bo-Peep where there were lots of Corn Buntings and Skylarks, but best of all was a purring Turtle Dove. Good to see it back again.
