After dipping the male Pallid Harrier in Cambridgeshire, Marc Read drove like a maniac to Pegwell Bay where we very luckily saw our target bird within minutes of arrival.

Landguard NR
ARCTIC WARBLER - 1 - superb views of this phyllosc. The long primary projection very visible, as was the dis-jointed supercilium at the base of the bill. A fantastic bird which showed well in dismal weather.
