Cudworth Common

The mid-afernoon cloudy conditions wasn't going to produce much in the way of insects, but to our surprise we found 4 Purple Hairstreaks flying briefly over the same Oak trees as the other day. There were a few Ringlets and the odd Meadow Brown flying. 
From a distance we could see at least 2 Oystercatchers in the Symphony compound, but no sight or sound of the Redshanks.
Kestrel must have bred somewhere nearby as there is always a couple hunting over the Common. A Green Woodpecker flew onto the Ash plateau and few Mistle Thrushes were present. (Les Corrall CG)
A Willow Tit called from the samne area of Woodland as before.
