I have set up this blog to record my bird and general wildlife sightings in the 5 mile radius of my home. This includes my local patch - New Hythe/Leybourne Lakes. This is an inland area of West Kent, a few miles from Maidstone. I rarely stray more than a few miles from this area these days. I live in a village called Birling which is at the foot of the North Downs and about 1.5 miles from New Hythe.
I had a quick half an hour walk up and down Lunsford Lane again in hope of finding the Firecrest....no sign but the female Goldeneye is still on the small pit near the road and there were several mixed tit flocks that contained the odd Goldcrest. A few Redwing called as they went over.

Hi Steve.....keep on trying, you never know.....
The redwing are still illusive here.......i hear them but they are well hidden......
Lots of goldcrest, I even had one in the garden last week.....tiny little birds......
Hi Steve. There's still a chance that it's about.It's a large area and you don't get many people checking the birdlife down there, do you? It's just nice to get out and see what's about,no matter how much time you have to spare.
If your ever in Halling your always welcome to call in for a cuppa.
