I saw the White Stork at Sevington, Kent this evening. It went to roost in exactly the same place as the one that overwintered in 2003/2004.
What are the chances of it being the same bird? Could it even be the same bird that was seen around cental Kent (Mersham, Boughton Aluph, etc) a number of times in 2005?

Hi Paul
Do you know if the bird is still in the area? I haven't seen it reported for a few days. I'm coming down for the day next wednesday and will try and pick it up if it's still about. Is it favouring a certain area etc ?

It was not there when I had a quick look on the sunday but it can be quite wide ranging. Hopefully it will be there on friday (17th) as I still haven't got any pictures of it. I will let you know if it still there.
