HALCYON DAYS

Tuesday at Samphire Hoe saw three whinchats and eight wheatears along the fence line first thing,you have seen enough of the latter but heres a couple of shots of the former,they are very difficult to get close to so these have been heavily cropped.

 WHINCHAT.
After work nipped over to Grove hoping to catch up with the Wryneck,no joy there but the kingfisher was ample compensation.




 KINGFISHER,

 Today was invited to join Malcom Mcvail on a visit to Dungeness,starting at the Patch we saw little gull,black tern,arctic tern with the more numerous common and sandwich terns.The highlight of the RSPB Reserve was the sight of three black necked grebes from the makepeace hide.
