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.

Adam ,
Very nice male Wheatear .
Looks like he's cheering a 6-1 win !
Had pair of Wheatears here for four days now Adam, unusual for them to stay more than a day.
Thanks fellas
Yes the Villa Victory was the topping on the cake - still a chance we may stay up but whether we'll still have Benteke in the team is another matter!
Hi Waren - yes these are the longest staying I've ever had on patch, 1 bird still present today. Perhaps those northerlies are holding them with us!
Adam.
3 Wheatears on your patch is a good find.
