Little Bunting at Bexley.


Brian ring's us to see if we wanted to go to Bexley in Kent for the Little Bunting that has been around for a few days.
It's only 24 miles and we do the trip in under an hour. after we park the car we head to the kissing gate to head up the hill, Geoff K is on the way back from seeing the Bunting and stop's to give us directions and have a little catch-up, always so nice to meet up with Geoff.
Off now to find the bird and after a short but wet underfoot walk we find  a small group of 3
watching the target bird.
It's on the mud path only a few feet away but was hard to pick out, but once we got on it feeding on the path we have great really close views.
Over an hour is spent watching this cracking little Bunting going about his business without any fear about us being close by.
A walk around the trees and bushes only gets Jimmy & me one other tick for the day a Green Woodpecker. Brian picked up a tick when he got Siskin but we never saw them.
