One of the Quail that I found at Scotney. This excellent image courtesy of Graham Parry taken in near darkness. The Tree Sparrows seem to have had a very good season so far, I counted 100+ and it looks like they are having another brood. Also young Yellow Wagtails and Wheatears there with lost of Corn Buntings. Each evening I have been seeing a Hobby hunting at last light suggesting its breeding nearby.

Spoonbill in its usual pose on the western back lake, plenty of Herring Gull chicks there but no Avocets or

terns.

  Kentish Plover at Lade Sands yesterday, another excellent find by Jacob

Caspian Tern found by Gary Johnson which frequented Burrowes most of the day, image taken from the Dennis's picnic area.
