2003 SIGHTINGS


This was a remarkable year on Severnside. A year in which 174 species were found, the second highest year total of species recorded. Three “firsts” were discovered during the year; a Cetti’s Warbler in March, Red-backed Shrike in August and a Caspian Gull in November.

A fine supporting cast including 2 Smew, 2 Avocets, Buff-breasted Sandpiper, 2 Ospreys, 2 Wrynecks, Wood Warblers, Grasshopper Warblers, Firecrests, Pied Flycatcher, Woodlark, Lapland Bunting, Snow Bunting, Corn Buntings and Crossbills, all contributed to a classic year.

There were some disappointments, with no Garganey, Pomarine Skuas or Leach’s Petrels being reported, all of which had become regular in recent years.
