A good if often a wet and windy week that saw the arrival of some superb birds Temminck`s stint,whinchat,Turtle dove,Cuckoo ,Grasshopper warbler and several others added to our years birds seen list now standing at 187 .
Bit naughty this evening we snuck into the nearby county of East Sussex to Rye harbour nature reserve. This stunning Spotted Redshank photographed on the salt pool was first spotted by Nicky. Also seen Dunlin, Redshank, Little tern (2),Med gulls, Ringed plovers, Greenshank Etc.
Chuffed to bits with these (cropped) images of the Hoopoe at Greatstone Dunes (Kent) . It showed very well despite being flushed by walkers several times a real treat for both me and a first (UK) for Nicky
The male Redstart at Dungeness today and a Yellow hammer from a trip along moor lane Woodchurch.
Not had as much time this week but pleased to add to the year list Spotted Redshank ,Jack Snipe and 2 Swallows from Oare today on the way home added Slavonian Grebe at Dungeness . The Red kite at Oare was the first I have seen there and the Bank Vole was from earlier this week.
2 Swallows past east hide Oare toward conyer
Oare marsh Red kite put up all the snipe including a jack that landed near by also Spotted Redshank
Nice walk with Nicky on Saturday from Foreness Point to Margate 3 Purple sandpiper added to the year list other notable birds Rock pipit, Eider and Fulmar. Then today a short sea watch Common Scoter, Little gull ,Brent geese also a walk from Jury`s gap 3 Avocet were the best seen
3 productive and enjoyable evening walks this week produced Male Hen Harrier Oare marsh . Fox and Redlegged partridge Galloways (Lydd ) and this evening Glossy Ibis and a Booming Bittern at Dungeness . also seen Perigrine falcon Dness and 3 Water Pipits Oare marsh
A record shot of the Little bunting at Godmersham and A Water rail at Stodmarsh taken from the path to the reedbed hide .
A trip out to Sandwich bay today produced ,Grey partridge, Short eared owl , Cattle egret and a White tailed eagle near the bird observatory bringing our total of bird species actually seen this year to 139 (not including the WTEagle )
White tailed sea eagle sandwich bay . Over obs at 12 .00 hours photos later
Stodmarsh came up trumps for us today with Water rail, Siskin, Lesser Redpoll and a Water pipit as the light faded.
Nicky and I went down to our local RSPB Dungeness today a cold wind but some sunshine. Best birds were a close fly past Woodcock Hayfield 1 .Then an amazing flock of Bearded tits with 19 counted at one time at Hookers (there are 11 in this image).
A trip to Dengewood proved fruitful today (19/1/24) with Siskin, Crossbill, Brambling and Coal tit the best of 43 species today.
We had some time and luck today ,we went to see the Long tailed duck at Ebbsfleet who completely unconcerned fed in front of us then amazingly an hour later sitting at the end of the Pegwell old hoverport the pair of Twite flew up the tide line to feed within a few meters of us.
Nicky and I were very pleased to find this pair of Tundra bean geese today on Walland marsh near Brookland at the Junction of Beacon lane and Clubbs lane .
Managed a trip out to see the Waxwings at North farm industrial estate Tunbridge wells . Very few birders there the most at one time we saw was around 8 . The 50 or so waxwings were very obliging and still showing well at 15.30 hrs next to Jewsons yard

I got to see my first Fox cubs of the year in the garden this evening. I almost bumped into this one. They weren't where I was expecting to see them. It looks like we have a fox family both sides of the garden fence 🎥🦊🦊😀💚👍 #Ramsgate #springwatch #wildlife
A late morning visit to Dungeness .Quite warm ,but breezy ......didn,t put the Small Coppers off .in all we counted 82 ,plus a few Small Whites. Later at a small local (fairly )wood .after some searching I found just two Duke of Burgandy ......in-cop.
First Swift back for the 2024 season 😍 and 25 hours earlier than last year, although if it wasn't a leap year it would have arrived on the same day and just 1 hour earlier. #DealSwifts

@LeyshonOwen @MarcHeathym007 @BCKentBranch Good job with the Grizzlie Owen ! we had 82 Coppers on a circular walk ,but very few in the trapping area.
