Pagham Harbour


We went to Pagham Harbour on Saturday afternoon. There weren't as many birds as last time we were there but we did see shell ducks, a lapwing, curlews, oyster catchers, swans and little egrets. There were loads of dead crabs - some big ones, and loads of little one washed up around the harbour. And dead cuttlefish - I've seen the cuttlebones that are washed up on the shore but this one still had skin and flesh. Something (seagulls?) had eaten the tentacles but we could see where the ink sack must have been.

In the evening we went across to West Wittering and had a Barbeque on the beach. Paul and
Kerry both took some photos. Fortunately for me they both managed to get some great shots of the sunset - I don't remember it at all - I must have been to busy enjoying the food.
