Birds, insects, animals and buildings seen during a walk from Winchelsea Beach to Pett Level on 19th April 2026

I was standing at the edge of the high area along the coast and admiring the view, with a windmill in the distance, when a couple that lived in the area told me that it was Paul McCartney's recording studio!

Hog Hill Mill


One female and seven male Common Pochards in Pett Level nature reserve - access is wildlife only



Weird house on the way to Cliff End from Pett Level

Thatched house on the hill at Pett Level

Female Blackbird on grass near the canal

There seem to be a lot of box-like modern houses in East Sussex

Two Robins for the price of one - on and under the information board near the canal

World War Two look-out on top of Toot Rock

I walked past the base of Toot Rock on one side of the canal, but could go no further as this house was at the end of the path.  I had to turn round and walk back to the bridge and walk along the other side.  A notice could have been put up to say there was no through way!  

The Royal Military Canal - viewed from Pett Level

I ended up back at the coast in Pett Level and saw a Great Crested Grebe in the sea

Oystercatchers at the edge of the land and cows in the distance - Pett Level nature reserve


Seven-spot Ladybird on the path

Dungeness power station in the distance

Caddisfly on the path

Two Little Egrets at the edge of the reeds

Plenty of Cormorants, gulls and geese at the edge of a pond in Pett Level nature reserve

The mobile home holiday park where I was staying viewed from up on the path along the coast

There were plenty of sheep and lambs in the fields
