Saturday's Slog

Yet another long walk in pleasant conditions but at the expense of birds especially the final stretch which was unbelievable void. In fact I did a lot better with insects both on the interest and the photography front.

9 Grey Partridge which was good as 8 of them were recently fledged juveniles. 1 Skylark ditto Mipit. Juv LEO call heard. 1 Stock Dove 22 LBBG, c65 BHG, 3 Blackbird 2 WW 1 Chaffinch,






9 Painted Lady 4 Peacock ditto small Tortoiseshell and others. I must get my act together with Meadow Brown and Ringlet confusion.
