After the Kingfisher stand off ended it was back to fishing. One of them caught a wriggly Sand eel. 🎥☁️💙💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

A few more Kingfisher pics from today. On the way home I spotted another Kingfisher fly from the sea up and over the cliff top onto the West cliff esplande. I checked out the boating pool and the garden wildlife pond just in case 🤣 📷☁️💙💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

What a birthday gift from Matt to Laurie & the kids. We spent over an hour watching two Kingfishers engaged in territorial behaviour in the harbour this morning. A rare treat to witness 😀 📷👑🐟💙💙💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

I wasn't able to collect the bin lid camera yesterday evening so it ran all through the night. Surprisingly it was still recording the next morning and caught the sunrise and some early risers!📹🍏🍏🍏🐦🦊💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife #binlidbirdbath

A new perch for one of two Kingfishers in the harbour today. 📷🌤💙💙💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

I've been expecting to see the return of Stonechats at #Pegwell, so it was a bit of a surprise to find my first pair of the #autumn on #Ramsgate west cliff this evening. 📷🌤🐦🐦💚👍 #wildlife

As I was setting up the camera at the garden bin lid bird bath yesterday morning, 'Zorro' the Fox came to investigate. Luckily I had one dog buscuit left for him. 📹🎥🌤🦊💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife #binlidbirdbath

Some footage from todays epic battle between two Kingfishers! 🎥🌥💙💙💚👍 #VisitRamsgate #ActiveRamsgate #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

An amazing Kingfisher walk with Kat and a few passersby who got to witness a territorial battle between two female Kingfishers this afternoon in #Ramsgate harbour. We spent over two hours watching these birds size each other up and then clash. 📷🌥💙💙💚👍 #VisitRamsgate #ActiveRamsgate #autumn #wildlife

A Firecrest in the garden treetops this afternoon as well as a few Goldcrests. 🎥🌤💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

It's not everyday you see a Kingfisher in the UK catch a crab and eat it. 🎥☁️💙💚👍 #Pegwell #autumn #wildlife

We walked back to #Ramsgate along the #Pegwell clifftop where we bumped into Scott @scottbirder.bsky.social who had just seen a Ring Ouzel, Redstart & Spotted flycatcher around the horse paddock. We spotted the Ouzel & some Song Thrush which was a great way to end our walk. 📷🌥💚👍

While watching the seals from the watch point. Ryan asked me what the bird was that had just landed on the fence not that far from us. We stood and watched this Kingfisher dive into the water. Another great encounter that took our count to 3 Kingfishers seen today! 📷☁️💙💙💙👍 #Pegwell #autumn #wildlife

Passing the #Pegwell pool we got to see my first Common Snipe of the season there and a good few Little Egrets. We stopped at the bird hide for some lunch and over on Shellness point I spotted 5 Avocet. 📷👍

At the old #Pegwell hoverport we got some nice views of 2 Wheatear flitting about the rocks looking for insects to eat. 📷☁️💚👍

Further along the coast a few Swallows were flying back & forth along the cliff when all of a sudden a raptor swooped out & grabbed a Swallow right in front of us. Although the behaviour suggests a Sparrowhawk I got the impression it might be a Kestrel but it all happened so quickly! 📷☁️🦅💚👍

An amazing day out birdwatching with Ryan on my #Ramsgate to #Pegwell walk. From the clifftop I spotted 2 Kingfisher chasing each other low along the coast so I decided to change our route & walk along the beach to see if we could refind them. 📷☁️💙💙💚👍

It was a pretty good day for birdwatching. No photo but I got a nice view of a male Ring Ouzel as it flew above me from the coastguard cottages to the big tree by the Pegwell hotel. Also a Wheatear, 2 Whinchat & 2 Kingfisher. Also 5 Brent geese, Lapwings, Teal & Shovelers back at #Pegwell. 📷

A bit worse for wear but nice to see a rare Wall Brown #Butterfly in Courtstairs Park this morning. 📷🌥🦋💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

Good to see our pollinators are being helped on the west cliff 📷🌥🐝💚👍 #Ramsgate #autmn #'wildlife

An early morning Fox. 🎥🌥🦊💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife #Zorro

On the way home I spotted another Kingfisher flying low over the sea along west cliff that landed on the Port rocks. I wonder if this might be a third bird? 😉 📷🌥🌊💙💙💙💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

Sadly it looks like this Kingfisher has somehow picked up a tick right infront of its left eye! Not great as this might effect its ability to hunt successfully. As if their lives are not tough enough. Fingers crossed it can find enough to eat. 🙁 🎥🌥💙💚🤞

Great to see two Kingfishers chasing each other around the habour early this morning. 📷🌤💙💙💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

Some close up footage of one of our Buzzards that was hunting along the Minster drains earlier this year. 🎥🌞🦅💚👍 #Saveminstermarshes #rethinksealink

The sun came out for the Eco-Fair at the Westgate Sunken Garden today. What a great event. Lovely to see so many familiar faces doing great work along our coast. 🎥🌤🦅🦀🦋🐝💚👍 #westgate #sunkengarden #EcoFair

I managed to catch just a small part of the Swallows flying past #Ramsgate west cliff this evening! 🎥🌞💚👍 #vismig #autumn #wildlifefrommywindow #kentbirding

A Blue Tit wanted to have a bath but the Blackbird was not keen to share so it went off and brought back some friends. Extra points if you spot the Blackcap! 📹🌦💦💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife #binlidbirdbath

The Peregrines were in the same place as when I saw them a few days ago. The only difference was that there was some beautiful music coming from inside the church. The wind was blowing a bit so I've added another version of Pie Jesù to the video. 🎥🌥🦅🦅💚👍 #Ramsgate #autumn #wildlife

A bit of an aerobatic display out the window over #Pegwell Bay and #Ramsgate west cliff of a North American Rockwell OV-10 Bronco. 🎥☁️🛩
