  • Barrowhill, Otterpool and East Stour River)
    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR13 D (Barrowhill, Otterpool and East Stour River) The tetrad TR13 D is an area of mostly farmland with several small waterways, of which the East Stour River is the most significant, and there are four small lakes (though none are publically-accessible), the most northerly of which is mostly covered with Phragmites. Other features of interest include a belt of trees running across the northern limit of Lympne Old Airfield (in the extreme south edge of the tetrad), part of Harringe Brooks Wood (which has no public access), the disused (Otterpool) quarry workings and the westernmost extent of Folkestone Racecourse and. The northern half of the tetrad is crossed by the major transport links of the M20 and the railway, whilst the old Ashford Road (A20), runs more or less diagonally across. Looking south-west towards Burnbrae from the railway Whilst there are no sites of particular ornithological significance within the area it is not without interest. A variety of farmland birds breed, including Kestrel, Stock Dove, Sky Lark, Chiffchaff, Blackcap, Lesser Whitethroat, Yellowhammer, and possibly Buzzard, Yellow Wagtail and Meadow Pipit. Two rapidly declining species, Turtle Dove and Spotted Flycatcher, also probably bred during the 2007-11 Bird Atlas. The Phragmites at the most northerly lake support breeding Reed Warbler and Reed Bunting. In winter Fieldfare and Redwing may be found in the fields, whilst the streams have attracted Little Egret, Snipe and, Grey Wagtail, with Siskin and occasionally Lesser Redpoll in the alders along the East Stour River. Corn Bunting may be present if winter stubble is left and Red Kite, Peregrine, Merlin and Waxwing have also occurred.

Defoliation by nun moth larvae can kill host trees especially conifers and has caused extensive losses despite intervention with biological and chemical insecticides. In parts of Europe, the occurrence of outbreaks has increased possibly as a result of the establishment of extensive pine plantations in poor quality areas. A serious outbreak was recorded in Europe between 1978 and 1985 and again in 1992 in Poland which involved hundreds of thousands of hectares. BUGWOOD.ORG/D. ADAM/2515023 BUGWOOD.ORG/H.

  • TR13 L (Hythe Ranges East and Fisherman's Beach)
    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR13 L (Hythe Ranges East and Fisherman’s Beach) The tetrad TR13 L comprises more than 50% sea, with most of the land being part of the Hythe Ranges which is predominately open shingle with some scattered vegetation. Consequently the range of breeding species present is rather limited but probably includes Ringed Plover, Red-legged Partridge and Black Redstart and possibly Cuckoo, Oystercatcher, Nightingale, Wheatear and Stonechat. Turtle Dove bred until relatively recently and there was a Little Tern colony known at the ranges from 1909 and apparently moved progressively westward as range activity increased during the twentieth century, disappearing completely by 1968. It was the terns which attracted Roger Norman’s attention in the late 1940s and he watched the site regularly during the 1950s and 1960s, and again from 1990, though focusing mainly on the section within TR13 G in the earlier years. The bushes attract migrants in spring and autumn, with sightings having included Garden Warbler, Sedge Warbler, Redstart and Spotted Flycatcher, amongst the commoner species. The seawall and open areas can hold Wheatears and Whinchats, with hirundines, pipits, wagtails, finches and buntings passing overhead. Rarer species seen in recent years have included Wood Lark (in December 2014 and 2017), Hoopoe (in April 2015) and Dartford Warbler (in December 2017). The foreshore is worth checking for waders, gulls and terns, with regular Sanderling and Turnstone, and occasionally Grey Plover, Dunlin, Purple Sandpiper and Whimbrel, whilst Bar-tailed and Black-tailed Godwits have been noted passing offshore. Gulls may include Mediterranean Gull and Little Gull, whilst Arctic Tern, Black Tern and Little Tern have been recorded in recent years.
