Monday 9th June

A warm, clear evening tempted me out to Barming Woods to try and locate Nightjars. The conditions were perfect, and a large area of 2-year old chesnut coppice looked ideal, but only a Tawny Owl was heard between 21:15-22:30. A young Common Toad crossed my path, and I bumped into Tim Hodge who was also listening out for non-existent birds! I'll try again in 2 weeks.
