Carlton Marsh

Both Pink Feet were on the wader scrape and later on the main scrape. Kingfisher looks as though it's here to breed again, and 2 Reed Warblers were singing. A new brood of 5 Greylags were on the Whin Pool.

There was another sighting of Mink on the dike near Bleachcroft Farm, where there are American Crayfish to feed on.

Butterflies included 38 Peacock, 8 Comma, 16 Speckled Wood, 11m 1f Orange-tip and 2 Green Veined White. 

Also of interest Green Shield Bug and a Great Diving Beetle (Chris Parkin)
