A pleasant walk out along the Bunk Line today. Birdlife still very static and very little song being heard.
A few Swift overhead and a couple of Kestrel present.
Butterflies and Dragonflies more apparent in particular areas that have not been sprayed or cut and even then, mainly grassland species as there are very few wild flowers around.
Why is the field on the other side of the road opposite the Church being sprayed or even cut? It seems just for so called cosmetic purposes!
Mammals: an encounter with the Roebuck again.
Dragonflies: Banded Demoiselle, Common Blue Damselfly Southern Hawker.
Butterflies: Small Skipper, Large Skipper, Large White, Small White, 1 Red Admiral, 1 Small Tortoiseshell, 2 Comma, a Silver-washed Fritillary (found by Tony Pittaway yesterday), 1 Speckled Wood, many Marbled White, and Meadow Brown, good numbers of Ringlet & 3 Small Heath.
