A report of wildlife sightings from the western edge of Maidstone, Kent. I note anything of interest in the vicinity of my home in Barming and from walks into work at the East Malling Research Station along the edge of Barming Woods and down to Ditton. Occasionally, when time allows, I get out to Ditton Quarry, a rich habitat hemmed in by residential and industrial developments on one side, but with open countryside on the other.

Thursday 27th November
No lunchtime wanderings today - a meeting at work instead. However it was a pleasure to see a female Sparrowhawk perched on one of the fence posts next to Kiln Barn Road, Ditton as I cycled into work this morning.
Hi Adam. you can link to my blog on http://stevelanesbirds.blogspot.com
I live in Maidstone so I'm fairly local, I'm in Mote Park a fair bit, also Leybourne Lakes and other places around. If the weather's ok on Saturday I may go and look at your Quarry.

Quarry pretty dead today so not sure it'll be very productive tomorrow?! Nice pics on your blog - I'll keep checking it to see what you add.
