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.

Sunday 13th May
A break in the torrential rain gave me time for a quick walk along Churk Lane, Barming. The layered clouds scuttled past in the SW wind, exposing pools of turquoise-blue sky. 2x Swifts swept past, pulling themselves up on quick flickers of their wings...them another 2 appeared, then another 3 and soon 25+.
