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 26th June
A Common Buzzard drifted east over the Newgates area of East Malling Research Station site (TQ719567) this afternoon. It was being mobbed by a pair of Lesser black-backed Gulls. It alighted momentarily on to the top of a dead tree on the quarry side of the railway before drifting off south.

Nice record Adam. Always get a Buzz when I see these still (if you excuse the pun)
Welldone with the Buzzard Adam.
