Over the last week the highlight has been Reed Warbler in
the Magic Garden. This is the fourth year in succession there has been a
singing bird here and it was still present at the time of writing. Surely
breeding must be on the cards soon?
Down Potter Lane in Morton I saw seven Yellow Wagtails…
And more surprisingly a Sedge Warbler singing from a hedge here
in the middle of arable fields.
Nice too to have a shot of Linnet at eye level rather than a
silhouette against a bright sky..
Insect interest is rapidly growing. I thought this was a
solitary wasp when I first saw it patrolling the edge of a half-dug rabbit hole
but it’s actually a nomad bee, I think either a Panzer Nomad(!) or a Fork-jawed
Nomad…
this is a fresh Green Carpet moth…
And this is the earliest Wall I’ve recorded in the parish
(seen today)
And this was the scene over the Magic Garden lake on Tuesday
evening . There was surprisingly little coming to feed on this vast feast…
