End of another month when persistent cold and often frosty nights meant very moths. The Early Thorn on 1st April was my only species new for the year recorded all month. Recent birds seen have included the Hoopoe at Stelling Minnis, Bar-tailed Godwits at Dungeness, Whitethroat and Stock Dove at Oare Marshes.
