A good butterfly find by Alan today of a White-letter Hairstreak at the west end of the village. The only other records in Cholsey have been in Tony Rayner’s east end garden to date, so an interesting find.
Another fairly quiet day out at Lollingdon. The 2 Common Redstart still present on the hill and a 3rd individual found by one of the horse paddocks, though quite elusive.
A Green Woodpecker also present on the hill and 1-2 Bullfinch on the wooded side.
The first Willow Warbler of the autumn in the same area as the 3rd Redstart.
3 quite vocal Kestrel between Little Lollingdon and the hill, 1 adult and 2 youngsters.
Mammals: Brown Hare.
Dragonflies: a single Brown Hawker.
Butterflies: Small Skipper, Brimstone, Large White, Small White, Common Blue, Holly Blue, Red Admiral, Small Tortoiseshell, Peacock, Comma, Speckled Wood, Marbled White, Gatekeeper, Meadow Brown and Ringlet.
