Donald Trump seeks advice from an old friend as the Stormy Daniels hush money trial gets underway.
I bumped into a pair of Green Hairstreak #Butterfly sheltering in #Stonelees. I got out the macro attachment to get some close up shots 📷🥶🦋🦋💚👍 #Pegwell #spring #wildife
Red-rumped Swallow Worth marshes this am @Sandwichbirdobs @KentishPlover @RSPBEngland
Spotted my first #Dragonfly of the year with this Hairy Dragonfly at Worth Marshes 📷🙂💚👍 #WorthMarshes #spring #wildlife
Continuing the year's pattern of earliest ever adult emergences in @Sandwichbirdobs recording area, two Blue-tailed Damselflies (I. elegans) at Roaring Gutter (previously 28th April 2017). Also from a few days ago late/final instar Drinker Moth - do you want sprinkles with that?
I just donated to this campaign, please support their good cause by making a donation. donate.biggive.org/campaign/a0569…
Crane on RSPB Worth Marshes. Despite huge increases in UK breeding & wintering populations, a rare sight in recent years. From 1998 a near-annual spring & autumn migrant with occasional pairs displaying & culminating with 36N🤯 on 27/2/17 but then just 3S 2/11/19 & 1 on 13/11/21.
THV Galatea passing the green'n'red baskets & yellow'n'black triangles - buoys burned into the retinas of dedicated (deranged?) Sandwich Bay seawatchers. A trickle of Whimbrel & Bar'wits heading N between squalls plus best of all 5 Velvet Scoters albeit too distant/quick for📷
Worth: Back on t'patch after a few days away. Lesser W'throat, Willow Warbler, Yellow Wag, 5 Garganey. inc. these 2♂️competing for attention, 7 Ruff, Wood, Green & Common Sand, Greenshank, 6 Egyptian Geese, Raven with a beakful of some unfortunate & 4 Great White Egrets heading N
The recent article in @britishbirds by Andy Stoddart recalled memories of this dark & heavily marked individual @Sandwichbirdobs in October 2008 which still defeats my attempts to assign to any of the known Redpoll taxa.
Black-headed Gull first bred @Sandwichbirdobs in 2016 & 2nd colony Restharrow Scrape 2019. Noise/activity attracts others i.e. Med Gulls. Color-ringed bird seen 15 March ringed as chick in Leipzig June 2020. Since seen France, Germany, NL & UK. Currently back at colony in Germany
MPs must vote on WASPI compensation NOW chng.it/NqxskMyd via @UKChange
Good to be back on the patch as were Chiffchaffs, Blackcaps & Sedge Warblers in song after the gales. Avocets & Little Ringed Plovers on the pools & a blush Little Gull a nice extra. Eight Egyptian Geese dropped by all the way from Memphis? (well so sang Mott the Hoople - Dude!).
Important one for local birders/naturalists to comment on: Medway Council seeking feedback re proposed new National Nature Reserve in n Kent. Have your say: surveys.medway.gov.uk/snapwebhost/s.… (And pls retweet!)

2 excellent sessions seawatching today at Dungeness: thousands of Terns (including our first Arctics, Littles & Blacks of the year), Brents, 2 Avocets, 2 RB Mergansers, 1 BT Diver amongst the RTs, Fulmars, Barwits & Whimbrels, 1 Great & several Arctic Skuas & Scoters. Brilliant.

A fantastic day. Thousands of Terns, with 16,000+ Common, 3,100+ Arctic, 154 Little, and 48 Black. Skuas on the move as well with 50+ Arctic, 7 Pomarine and 2 Great. Top counting by Martin! A modest arrival of passerines too with Whinchat, Pied Flycatcher and Firecrest the best.
From today’s two Seawatches at Dungeness today, 2 Drake Eider, a Dark Phase Arctic Skua, and just for comparison, a Light Phase Arctic Skua.
