A pair of bright green leaves of Common Twayblade form a cup shape. I the foreground are dead leaves, and behind a carpet of moss.

Several singing Chiffchaffs on my regular local route through Jacksons and Shulland Woods. Also Bluebells starting to flower, Common Twayblade poking up leaves, plus a singing Yellowhammer & a calling Marsh Tit along the way. #KentNature #KentBirds

Best bits of bird noticing are unexpected. This was on the way to the station, Chatham. Herring Gull 'paddling' to draw worms to the surface. #Birds #KentBirds #KentWildlife

In Hythe, seeing our daughter (she made me the coffee).
The dog loves the beach.
Med Gull, Turnstone and a possible Red Necked Grebe on the sea (no scope, so couldn’t be positive).

My morning constitutional took me through the parkland at Doddington Place. Heard my first Fieldfares of the autumn. Plus Redwing, Green & Great Spotted Woodpeckers, Nuthatch, Goldcrest, etc. Very pleasant. #KentNature #KentBirds

Being on a boat all day Tues meant a captive audience to test out bits of new talk (I've been 'polishing a third' ever since). 😉

Everything now set for Tues' trial run on 'The rails of north and east Kent':

Still Chiffchaffs galore tonight at Sandwich Bay ~ the sun-kissed hedgerows near the Obs alive with movement as a dozen Chiffs (& a couple of Willow Warblers) sallied on & off the branches for food. A real treat to see so many migrant passerines in one spot.

An epic last 90 minutes of the birding day at Sandwich. After a tantalising pallid-looking Swift flew WNW w/Commons, watching Restharrow Scrape produced 11 Cattle Egrets off to roost, followed by c14 Glossy Ibis in from the NNE at 1925, dropping WNW of the Obs 🙂

A sunny Saturday saw us wander the Sandwich estate & the RSPB reserve at Worth. Highlight was the appearance of a White Stork that flew in front of us & plonked itself down, totally unconcerned, by a busy tractor and trailer. Doubtless some Knepp-otism here...

... the Crake showed nicely for maybe half an hour or more ~ in the open throughout almost ~ & took me right back to happy memories of my 1st one at Skewjack in August 1984. High quality bird this. Nearby, a smart Cattle Egret & Whinchat too.

A fun trip to Kent for @linnetincley.bsky.social & I ~ everything started off nicely on Thursday evening when we arrived at SBBO & nipped along to New Downs to enjoy the snazzy Spotted Crake that's been around a week or so now. Really enjoyed this characterful bird...

So while taking many pictures of the Red-footed Falcon at Dengemarsh this morning, this Bittern flew past, circled, then dropped into the reeds off to the left of the ramp.
