Black-throated Diver
With the bitter cold weather continuing, it has been hard work walking around Dengemarsh and the reserve. Very little new has arrived, though it is very nice to still be seeing large numbers of White-fronts and Wigeon, also the winter thrushes, Snipe along with the odd Jack Snipe and Woodcock. On Burrowes the Black-throated Diver skin in residence though it does get lost among the several 1,000s of Cormorants there. There are still no Smew at Dungeness despite hours spent scouring every lake and pool.

My usual view of a Woodcock, this one exploded from below a bush next to me at Dengemarsh

 The last time I managed to spot a Woodcock on the ground December 2012 in the Willow Trail
