I was not expecting to take around one hundred people (over three walks) on a guided nature walk around the hoverport as part of the Day of Action for Nature. A great turn out!!! πŸ“·πŸŒžπŸͺ»πŸ¦…πŸ¦‹πŸ¦ŽπŸͺ± #saveminstermarshes #rethinksealink #savethehoverport #pegwell #spring #wildlife

Bumped into Ryan and his young son at the old #Pegwell hoverport where we got to watch a Kestrel land just above the Green Woodpecker nest hole as the male was excavating it and this beautiful Fox sunbathing below the cliff. πŸ“·πŸŒžπŸ¦…πŸ¦ŠπŸ’šπŸ‘#spring #wildlife

I've never seen Avocets do this before. At first I thought they were about to mate but maybe it's some sort of bonding behaviour? πŸŽ₯πŸŒžπŸ’šπŸ‘ #Pegwell #spring #wildlife

At the side of the road down to the old #Pegwell hoverport I spotted ♂️ & ♀️ hairy-footed flower bees on the dead nettles. Amazing to witness & film but I was equally surprised to see a spider step in & try and break it up! πŸŽ₯🌞πŸͺ»πŸπŸπŸ•·οΈπŸ’šπŸ‘ #hoverport #spring #wildlife #saveminstermarshes #RethinkSeaLink

On the way down to the old #Pegwell hoverport this afternoon I spotted this Fox hunting on the salt marsh and then it spotted me. Looks like it caught something to eat as well. πŸŽ₯πŸŒžπŸ¦ŠπŸπŸ’šπŸ‘ #spring #wildlife

Back in 2024 I had the 'pleasure' of joining Janet, Toby & film crew on a boat trip from #Ramsgate to see the seals at #Pegwell Bay for '48 hours with Fielding'. It was a very rough crossing. I thought we were going to drown! Now I just have to find a Blu ray player to watch it on! πŸŽ₯🎬πŸ›₯️🌊🦭 #DoctorWho
