Saturday 27th March
A text from Eddie Denson at 4.45 that he was watching at Alpine Swift over his house, Castle Lake, Motorway Lake (Junction 4 of M20) I was there in 10 minutes and had good views as it wheeled overhead. At 5.30 the heavens opened for torrential rain and it disappeared. Hopefully it will be around tomorrow.
Also a Swallow and Sand Martin over.
Apologies for the rubbish pics but great patch bird! Cheers Eddie!

Congratulations Steve!! I got absolutely drenched standing at the bottom of my garden looking over the lake but alas I missed out this time. Needless to say I will be down there early tomorrow,just in case.
Well done Steve, not rubbish at all, gripping stuff.

Brilliant record, well done for getting there!
Good record,there must be good numbers in Britain,they could turn up anywhere,keep looking skywards.
Hi Steve,no I didn`t see it,I will have a look in the morning just in case its still around.
Hi Steve.
Well done on getting there and recording a photo of it.
Bet there will be a few bodies in the area tomorrow, possibly I will be one of them. Keep looking skywards.
Excellent Steve - well done on getting the pics. Was down at Eddies at 18:15 but it had gone. Will be down there first light tomorrow - keep in touch if you see anything!
