Worth and Fordwich 20/01/22

A day in East Kent starting at Worth, near Sandwich. Weather was fairly bright, but with a cold northerly wind.

The adult White Stork near Worth was not difficult to find, and gave close views from the car. The bird is unringed.

Moving on, a flock of 13 Tree Sparrow was seen near Dickson's Corner.

A Mistle Thrush near the Observatory, was my first of the year, while a Buzzard sat on a nearby fence post.

At Fordwich in the afternoon, and being away from the coast it was certainly milder. The Dusky Warbler was found in the same area as on the previous visit, west of the permissive path sign, and was calling quite often. However, a nearby Cetti's Warbler caused much confusion, the call being extremely similar to that of the Dusky.
