Bird-wise it’s been very quiet. A Kingfisher has taken up its
usual late summer residence on the Magic Garden lake. A Swift was over the
village yesterday (along with three Buzzards) and around 50 Swallows were
feeding low over the village green.
On the insect front the pick of the sightings was this Small
Copper butterfly in the Magic Garden. This is the first I’ve seen in the
village for many years…
Also there today, along with the usual whites, were half a
dozen Speckled Woods…
Red Admiral, Peacock and two Walls.
The first Migrant Hawkers were seen last week. Both female…
But this Common Darter was the only other dragonfly seen
today…
