A still, calm and bright start to the day with a light Westerly – very birdable weather. Despite a few birds on the cliff path bushes heading up the cliff – Black Redstart, Chiffchaff , Firecrest this was the only pocket of birds untill I reached the far end of South Foreland valley with almost nothing moving overhead.
A scan of a small party of Gulls at the base of the cliff beneath the lighthouse from the clifftop produced this smart subadult Caspian Gull.
Nothing to mention untill I reached the bottom of the valley where a large titflock were going through and amoung them a suprise Yellow–browed warbler. Very nice to see and my latest here.
A quick look at the gulls in the old marina and a first winter Yellow–legged Gull (first image below) plus the same aged Argentatus Herring Gull were all of note.
