Carlton Marsh

A Common Sandpiper spent the day on the wader scrape (JP et al).

It's good to know there are still 2 Grey Partridges around.

Insects included the first Small Heath of the Year, 12 Peacock, 2 Comma, 5 Speckled Wood, 2m Brimstone, 49 Orange-tips (15 of which were female), 1 Large White, 7 G.V. White, and 5 Small White.

Also of note Brown Silver Line moth, Green Tiger Beetle, Click Beetle (Athous haemorrhoidalis). Common Blue and Azure Damselfly were on the wing and the first Four Spot Chaser of the year. (Chris Parkin).
