A Common Crane was calling over fields on rising ground near the reserve at 07.20hrs, our second record and the first since 1993! Also adult Yellow-legged Gull and 2 Buzzards grubbing about on the ploughed field. A Golden Plover flew north and a Redshank south. 20 Skylarks and 10 Meadow Pipits were also of note. (JP)
Butterflies included 10 Small Copper, the largest count so far this year. 6 Comma, 8 Red Admiral, 21 Speckled Wood, 5 Small White, 27 White sp. (Green Veined or Small White) and a Lesser Treble Bar Moth. (Chris Parkin)
