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.

Happy Christmas! Hawfinch showed again 08:50 and again at 12:30, landing briefly on the roof of my house (!) before flying off east with Fieldfares when a Sparrowhawk drifted past.
