A Lapland Bunting made a brief
appearance on the beach at the fishing boats and a Woodcock and four Firecrests
were seen at the Long Pits. Finches continue to move through with 130 Goldfinches, 12 Siskins and a Redpoll of note.
A couple
of other pieces of interest. For those of you who generously contributed to the
Acadian Flycatcher bucket fund the trustees decided to use this to purchase a
digital microscope. This will help with our ongoing and wide-ranging recording
of the wildlife of the Dungeness peninsula. Many thanks.
