I'm an aviation buff and enjoy wildlife, mostly birds. I dabble in photography. Also keep cactus and succulents. Thanet.

I set myself a challenge to find a cuckoo at Pegwell without hearing it first. I succeeded. It made no call in all the time I watched it.

Rather overcast at Pegwell but it was good to hear my first Nightingale of the year and see and hear my first Cuckoo too.

I'm used to seeing seals at Pegwell but they're distant. In Horsey in Norfolk theyr'e just metres away. It's a managed experience to minimise disturbance. Amazing at close range.
