Dawn - no sign of the Cuckoo yet

Heavy rain and hail at the Sevenoaks Wildlife Reserve.

Dawn: Knole Park

Some Deer bellowing and in the distance the sound of antlers clashing with antlers, but overall it was quite subdued compared to previous years. The sun came up on a beautiful Autumn morning.

Cuckoo

The pictures are slowly getting better of the Cuckoo - but still need to be closer. Here the Cuckoo appeared and departed before dawn so the first light was missed.

Spring starting. Otford fields

Hard frost last weekend and once again found the Yellowhammers singing at Dawn in the fields. This weekend the sun is out and many Small Tortoiseshells were basking in the sun.

From a very cold dawn in the fields outside Otford and the Kent Wildlife Trust centre in Sevenoaks. There could of been some interesting shots out there but they eluded me today ...
