Insects

Sunny, 26°, light S.

A walk out to Lollingdon but very little noted bird wise.

A Corn Bunting on the hill and singing and several Yellowhammer nearby.

20+ Red Kite around,  as several fields were being harvested for silage so plenty for the Kites to scavenge on like Skylark chicks or eggs!

Dragonflies: Beautiful Demoiselle.

Butterflies: Brimstone, Large White, Small White, Green-veined White, Holly Blue, Common Blue and Speckled Wood.

Several other insects noted.

  1. Hi Paul, your Banded Demoiselle is a Beautiful Demoiselle - lots of Banded Demoiselles by the river along with Red-Eyed Damselflies
