Early morning a Willow Warbler was singing in the communal gardens. Later that morning, a White-tailed Eagle flew W over the flat at 11:27. I watched it for a couple of minutes before it gained in height and I lost it to view. My thanks to David Campbell who initially picked this bird up heading W over his garden in West Worthing a few minutes beforehand. After departing Goring-by-Sea airspace it was then tracked at two locations further west, these being East Preston and Rustington/N Littlehampton. Tim Mackrill later confirmed this to be an IoW bird, an amazing sight nevertheless, and certainly a species I never expected to see from our balcony/garden!
