The Birds of Kent

Well, what can I say, what an amazing day the weather gave us, I felt actual warmth for the first time this year. Did the usual round on Sheppey , Leysdown first, tide miles out and so were the birds. Then Harty, distant Harrier activity, work was in progress on the fleet corner reinforcing the road and the laybye, nothing else in the way of birdlife apparent. On to rspb Elmley, sighted were Redshank, several of, Reed Bunting, Meadow Pipit, a few Lapwing and the Brown Hare pictured below, the Sparrow was taken by from the farm car park, the thrush as I was starting out in a tree giving wonderful voice.
