A thick fog enveloped Barming as I left for work this morning - may be good for bringing down some migrants? The song of a Chiffchaff carried through the stillness of the mist at the edge of Oaken Wood. The Little Owl was in his favourite spot and a Murder of Crows loitered, portensously.
The sun shone briefly mid-morning, and checking my strawberry plots I discovered Badger trails and pawprints all over the place.
A couple of Skylarks sang continously. Only 10-minutes at lunchtime to get out, so I decided to check a newly ploughed field opposite the East Malling Conference Centre - 10x Pied Wagtails (inc 2 females that briefly looked like alba) hopped over the recently turned clods, another case of spot the bird in the photo below! Another Skylark shuffled through the furrows.
