Yes it’s been a while since this blog had any postings. Out this afternoon monitoring the butterflies: not as many as I’d hoped, but the following were seen: Orange Tip, Brimstone, Peacock and Speckled Wood.
Peacock on Middle Way.
There seemed to be quite a few Buzzards in the woods which were disturbed as I walked by. I suppose they wouldn’t be there if there wasn’t something edible nearby.
