08.00-09.00 from the fishing boats:
Red-throated Diver: 10w  3E
Gannet: c60w
Brent Goose: 8E

Bonxie: 1w

Auk sp: 179w
3w Glaucous Gull: 1 on beach
Yellow-legged Gull: 1 on beach
 Making it into Kent
At Scotney the Common Crane still present in fields behind the lake and always distant, it just about made it into Kent air space on one of its fly abouts. Also 2 Marsh Harriers and the feral Barnacles.
A plod from Littlestone to St Marys bay outfall and back looking for Snow Bunting and Lapland Bunting drew a blank on both counts. Responding to a text alerting me to the Penduline Tit being heard (SB) at Hanson, I made my way there and spent an hour looking at an empty reed bed. Maybe tomorrow.
