SUMMARY:RSPB Medmerry
DESCRIPTION:Organisers: Paul Emmerson & Richard Allan\nRSPB Medmerry is just along the coast from RSPB Pagham Harbour\, and was created through one of Europe’s largest coastal realignment projects. It transformed a floodplain into a thriving wetland habitat. The reserve itself is a mix of saltmarsh\, lagoons\, and shingle banks\, while the surrounding area is rough grassland\, hedgerows and scrub. \nThis mix of habitats gives a very good mix of birds. In early winter we will find wildfowl\, waders\, raptors\, finches and buntings. \nBring mid-walk refreshments. The route is 4 miles and the whole area is exposed\, so dress accordingly. \nParking is at the larger of two RSPB car parks (beware if you simply type RSPB Medmerry into Google Maps – you may end up at the wrong one). Meet at the Earnley RSPB Car Park at 09.30 am .  Post Code : PO20 7JL \n\nBetter as always to use the What3Words below:

SUMMARY:Farlington Marshes
DESCRIPTION:Join the two Tonys ( Tony Letchford & Tony Benton) on a trip to Farlington Marshes\, the first time SDOS has visited this reserve. (OS Map Reference SU 685 045). Beware on your departure as it can be quite tricky to exit the reserve \nParking: Three car parks are available – height barriers at entrances (6′ 3″) \nOuting Information: There is a path that runs around the outer sea wall. We will follow circular route which is approximately 3miles. \nThis reserve offers wonderful walks all year round\, but during the winter it really comes to life\, playing host to a staggering number of migratory\, overwintering wildfowl. \nDark bellied brent geese\, wigeons\, teals\, avocets\, redshanks and dunlins flock to Farlington Marshes in their thousands\, creating unrivalled bird watching opportunities. The winter also sees the return of the ever popular short eared owls\, which hunt over the Point Field and southern end of the main marsh. \nBring refreshments & some lunch as we will stop part way along the route. \nMeeting Point: Meet at 10am at the far (Eastern) car park\, which is at the entrance to the seawall & reserve.
