New arrivals today Whitethroat this morning (Jim Plant) and Wheatear this afternoon. There was a trickle of Swallows and 2 Lesser Black Backs north but, nothing much else. Red Legged Partridge, Little Owl and Buzzard were present and Green and Great Spotted Woodpeckers were very audible.
Butterflies included 2 Brimstone males, 16 Orange tip males and 3 females (Chris Parkin)
Hundreds of Cowslips are now in bloom and the first flowers of Yellow Archangel are just emerging. Slightly earlier than usual the fruiting bodies of the edible St George's Mushroom were also on show today.
