Trying out the new camera.
Kingfisher, Goldcrest, Goldeneye drake, Gadwall – asleep, Marsh Harrier @ 300m!
The White-tailed Lapwing is still present but decided to stay sat on the shingle. We saw a Purple Heron flying to and from the nest site.
We saw a small group of Tree Sparrows at the reserve entrance
and a Corn Bunting sang from the wires nearby. A Black-tailed Skimmer basked on the reeds at Dengemarsh.
A White-tailed Lapwing arrived at Dungeness on 11th July via Lancashire, Essex and Gloucestershire. It was still present this morning when I went to see it.
This is a first for Kent (and me!)
Rather too far away for photography but here is a record shot.
