Forgot to mention the Wheatear and very distant Winchat at Dan’s Dock which is why I went there! #kentbirding
Not the usual view of Oare marshes, though Dan’s Dock was busy with Water rail, Cetti’s warbler, Lesser Whitethroat, Meadow pipit, Yellow wagtail , Pied Wagtail and Starling murmurations. #kentbirding
An interesting trip to Oare marshes with very low water levels , lots of distant waders on the East Scrape. Black tailed godwits, summer Knots, Avocets and Redshanks, Sandwich, Common Terns and LR Plover. Unusual smallish grey and white wader thought to be a Sanderling out of place. #kentbirding
Nice to hear sedge warblers, reed warblers, whitethroats and reed buntings on walk to Uplees Copse to see the the 1st year female ? Ring Ouzel. #kentirding
In deepest Conyer, Nightingales and Blackcaps tempt you to stand and wait.. #kentbirding #kentnature
Nice to wake up this morning to the sound of a Med. Gull calling, a new spring is arriving moment. #kentbirding
First time out at Oare this year, water levels high, best for ducks, Pintail and Shelduck at their best. #kentbirding
A quick walk around Conyer Creek this morning revealed plenty of teal, wigeon, shelduck, brent geese, redshank, dunlin, and avocet. Some redwing and fieldfare over the orchards. A buzzard tucking into a pigeon. #kentbirding
Why is it , if you decide not to take your scope with you to go birdwatching, there’s always something unexpected to find? Like the Bittern skulking in the reeds on the East Flood at Oare Marshes..
