PALLAS'S LEAF WARBLERS in SUSSEX

The PALLAS'S LEAF WARBLER was showing relatively well this morning at Beachy Head, in Sycamores at the entrance to Belle Tout Wood, 400 yards east of the Birling Gap. It was consorting with a feeding flock of birds in the wood, which included 2 FIRECRESTS, a pair of Blackcaps, a Common Chiffchaff and 8-10 Goldcrests. A crowd of over 25 observers was enjoying the event...

There had clearly been a fall of FIRECRESTS at the Head, with at least 6 others being seen, whilst a YELLOW-BROWED WARBLER was nearby in pines at Birling Gap

Another PALLAS'S LEAF WARBLER was found at Climping Beach later in the day, at the west end of Long Wood in the vicinity of the stile (accessed from Bread Lane); there were also at least 6 FIRECRESTS at that location too (Lee Evans)
