Today was different being September the morning starting warm but misty and with low clouds and having a couple of hours to spare decided to check for migrants. The reserve had plenty of Spotted Flycatchers and at least 2 Pied Flycatchers also of note was Glossy Ibis , Willow Warblers,Blacknecked Grebes and masses of Sand Martins. Did not go down to the point but apparently Wryneck was present and what we have been seeing many of over the last fortnight is Humming Bird Hawk Moths when I purchased this house was told they visited the garden and this week was honoured with a visit from a solitary Hawk Moth for a while.Little Owls still at Caldicote Lane.
Good to hear you're out and about Eddie......only a a week or so and it'll be 5 years since the tufted puffin. About time you found something else!

DeleteApologise for late comment Phil joined me down at Dungeness yesterday he said I had replied to him and not you.
Anniversary been and gone but did run into one of the other who saw it down at Scotney yesterday.
How are the Family and Kids and your new bird reserve you were going to do in the garden..I am managing to get out on occasions subject to all the drugs but managing to do all right.except on the bird front my bird list for 2014 is appalling.
All the best
