Yesterday, five Penduline Tits were found at Titchfield from Spurgin Hide, so with a ticket already booked for today I popped over, had a coffee and found that they'd been seen briefly by an early visitor. Managed to hobble as far as Darters Dip where Ian C told me they'd not been refound in wet and windy conditions and that the hide was full with DC's bird group and Mark plus Dad so, after checking with MF that they'd not popped out, I gave up. This recently cut patch in front of the hide(above) was full of Teal and at least ten Snipe but sadly no Jacks. Hopefully the tits will hang around as they did between December 2015 and March 2016 when I saw them on six dates.
