Does anyone know if the Woodchat Shrike has been seen today?

Cetti's Warbler singing again at the allotment yesterday along Eddington Lane. Also heard Sedge Warbler in the reedbed in front of the Co-Op at the old golf course development.

Some very brief bird/wildlife updates of recent as I've been very quiet on here. Nothing too much of note but nice, nonetheless!

Heard a distant Nightingale from the garden this evening while staying in Greenhill. The first time I've heard one here for years so hopefully they're here to stay again!

The last and most exciting sighting of them all, for me anyway. I've waited 30 years to see a wild badger ...alive. I've now seen some on 3 occasions since moving to Folkestone! 2 sightings in the same spot and one evening there were two playing together!

Another day, another Black Redstart in and around the garden. I could get used to this.

A new garden list for me down in Folkestone. Really excited to see what I get after today. Black Redstart on top of a neighbours garage. A Raven fly over. And plenty of Siskins heard. Grey Wagtail also heard.

Also had coffee break, in Sandgate, from all the work. Razorbill close in shore, Sandwich Terns and a white winger. Probably just a hefty Med Gull but didn't clock it until it had gone well past. A new mile list might be on the cards 😬

Strange one yesterday. Had a Harris Hawk land on a lamp post on the M20 by the Eurotunnel and Cheriton junction. Is anyone aware of an escapee?
