It's about time I started some short blogposts here.
So, although I usually steer away from sightings highlights, I've toyed with an idea for some time now of recording an autumn as can be seen within the bowels of the Country Park, from Horrid Hill. The Spurn of the South Medway (if you change your compass view and squint hard). Each day I visit, there'll be a short factoid paragraph, then a few of the counts from the notebook.
