| Dartford Warbler, Sylvia undata |
On Friday afternoon I visited The Burgh near Burpham where I saw a Red Kite, a Buzzard, a Kestrel, a Stonechat, a flock of at least 13 Corn
Buntings and two Brown Hares. Three Short-eared Owls sat in their usual field
near the dew pond. When a tractor passed near them they stayed on the ground
until they were forced to fly, then they landed nearby. The wind was strong at times.
On Sunday clear skies encouraged me to visit Iping Common
again. I saw two Dartford Warblers displaying near a tumulus. A flock of
Goldcrests twittered in the gorse and a Reed Bunting appeared briefly.
