"Sedge-Fund Analyst"

Post-glaushous i spend the rest of the day at Dungeness Point/RSPB and Rye Harbour NR. Two really nice reserves with plenty of summer birding to be done.

The weather wasn't kind, but we know better than to expect nice conditions at the patch.

Here's a selection of the day's shots. 74 species in total, not bad - highlights.

Cuckoo
5 Raptors
Lots of warblers
The glauc
Tern colony

The Sedge Warbler was really obliging, popping up in front of the hide and singing for a good 10 minutes.






The tern colonies at Rye are fantastic with good numbers of breeding Little and more Sandwich/Common than you can shake a stick at.





Fledgling skylark already mastering song flight.




And a barrell roll from the Sanger before my camera ran out of battery.
