The highlight of a session at the Woods was a
Great Black-backed Gull over Valley Meadows at 11:37. A
Hobby was clocked as it circled high over Holly Lane Meadow, where a
Collared Dove was noteworthy. A
Rook flew over Hither Field and a
Mistle Thrush was in Fames Rough while six
Bullfinches were counted.
Four
Brown Hairstreaks included two at The Nuttery and a male
Chalkhill Blue was still out in Valley Meadows, representing the pick of the lepidoptera. Circle Field had a
Common Darter.
