Beautiful shots.
Beautiful shots.
Well done. Still waiting for my first Dragonfly of the year.
Was checking the pond this afternoon when I saw these 2 moulted Emperor Dragonfly nymph skins floating on the surface. Nice to know they are doing well in there. @BDSdragonflies @Britnatureguide @NatureUK @BBCSpringwatch
A pleasant if wet walk around the Grove/Stodmarsh circuit this morning noting 65 species. 2 Bittern, 1 Wood Sandpiper, 2 Wheatear, 2 Cattle Egret the highlights. Full list @ ebird.org/checklist/S170…. @KentishPlover
Nice to record 2 Bittern booming at the same time from the Stour Valley from @nethergongcampi this morning @ 03:30 . May require headphones. Otherwise April has been a huge disappointment on the #nocmig front. @KentishPlover
Nice one Keith. Looks to be quite newly emerged. The eyes haven't coloured up yet.
First Kent Broad bodied Chaser seen on the 14th April at Dartford. @Migrantdragons @BDSdragonflies
Sedge Warbler from the weekend @nethergongcampi where the year list rises to 107 species. More @ ngbirding.blogspot.com. @KentishPlover @Britnatureguide @NatureUK @BBCSpringwatch
Many thanks @BDSdragonflies for the front cover photo on the latest 'Dragonfly News'. Much appreciated. @ScotlandBds @Britnatureguide @NatureUK
Many thanks to @a1virginia for finding a superb male Pied Flycatcher at Stodmarsh this morning. A valley ✅️ and my 240th species to be seen in the Stour Valley.
5! First Kent ones I've heard of Dave. 👍 @BDSdragonflies

Two of my favourite shots of the Large Red Damselflies from today at Westbere, east Kent. NEW photos on my blog @ marcheath.blogspot.com. @BDSdragonflies @ScotlandBds @Britnatureguide @NatureUK @BBCSpringwatch
Cracking few hours at Westbere this afternoon opening my odonata account for 2024. In some warm sunshine I found 21 Large Red Damselfly and 13 Variable Damselfly. A few shots to come later. @BDSdragonflies @ScotlandBds @Britnatureguide @NatureUK @BBCSpringwatch @Migrantdragons

A varied day out in Kent with @BarryWright12 and @garynhoward. Highlights included 3 species of Skua, Whimbrel, Nightingale, Garden Warbler, Turtle dove, Red Kite, Hobby, Hairy Dragonfly and at least 6 stunning Downy Emeralds.
@ChrisGi99428237 @MarcHeathym007 @BCKentBranch Bottom SE corner of Trapping Area - favoured area - but water levels only slowly going down
Freshly emerged Downy Emerald getting ready for its maiden flight @BDSdragonflies
Excellent day, made even better on bumping into Barry Wright, James Hunter & Gary Howard who within minutes pointed to newly emerged Downy Emeralds at Kennardington Bdge, a site 1st for us. We saw 4. KP saw 1 last year so hopefully spreading. Also several Hairy Dragonflies seen.
The sun is out on Dungeness - with a butterfly transect recording good numbers of Small Coppers First Grizzled Skipper of the year Dragonflies which were new for the year at Long Pits- Blue-tailed, Azure, Common Blue and Red-eyed Damselfly (pic) @MarcHeathym007 @BCKentBranch
Back home, after being delayed 24 hrs, walked straight into Cuckoo at Northward hill, a welcome sound, also Hobby, lots of Nightingales,White and lesserthroats, Reed and Sedge wblrs, and a westward passage of Swifts over Halstow marshes 😌
3 Wood Sandpipers still at marsh hide Stodmarsh this morning.
Sounding a bit like the Camargue at Foreness right now - magic 👍
