Hairy Dragonfly

Nothing really doing at the pond with just 2 Common Tern, 6 Buzzard, Oystercatcher, 2 Red-legged Partridge and a Raven the only noteworthy birds seen though it’s nice to see that Yellow Wagtail have got there first brood off successfully while today 4 Foxes were seen in different locations including an adult catching a Rabbit in the sailing club graveyard.

With the weather continuing to be ideal for insects we joined up with Keith and Allan at Stockton Cutting adding Silver Y, White-legged and Blue-tailed Damselfly to the year list and Hairy Dragonfly showed well for the cameras. Very good numbers of Small Blue noted.

As the cloud cover bubbled up this afternoon in front of tonight’s forecasted rain front Hobbies appeared over the garden with one at 3pm and 2 at 5pm.
