New Romney - mild, sunny, light airs - The balmy, late autumn weather continues, ideal then for weekend Ted walks from home; two around the farmland and one yesterday afternoon down to the golf course where the highlight was 100 Meadow Pipits to roost in the long grass, but no sign of any Shorties. The flatlands yielded two singing Cetti`s Warblers, three Chiffchaffs, a Goldcrest, several Long-tailed Tits, Yellowhammers, Skylarks and Meadow Pipits, three Buzzards, a Kestrel, a Dabchick on the New Cut and a Great White Egret over. The garden delivered another Firecrest and a Chiffchaff. Also noted hereabouts, due to the warmth, Migrant Hawkers and Red Admirals on the wing, a small bat sp over the park and a host of wild flowers still in bloom including, appropriately enough on this Remembrance Sunday, a clump of Poppies along Hope Lane.
