Another look for Waxwings at 12:30 turned up 5 in the large trees at the eastern perimeter of the churchyard. They appeared to have discovered the large bunches of mistletoe and fed contently for 40 minutes or so.
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.

Hi Adam. You certainly don't like sharing your Waxwings do you,haha.Nice shots of them again.
Hi Ken
Numbers seemed to drop off in last day or so and heard this morning that 5 have been seen in Sidcup. I always wondered if the East Malling birds were the flock see in Folkestone and they're just working their way up the M20! Got to enjoy them while they last - one day soon I'll be missing them!

I just hope they stay until the weekend when I can get to see them!
