A cloudy morning held the promise of something unusual, but produced only a late(ish) garden warbler heading through. Our first juvenile robin of the season was observed, not a local bird, as our resident birds have apparently disappeared mysteriously. This one looks to have fledged a while ago and moved down from the town. 

Our resident fox is doing a great job of keeping the rabbits on their toes whilst he/she is trying (presumably) to feed some cubs. A lesser whitethroat ringed elsewhere has decided to live here as it was showing breeding condition.


Cinnabar moth lives on Common Ragwort which is present on site in small numbers.

Birds Ringed: Garden Warbler 1, Lesser Whitethroat 1, Linnet 1, Robin 1.
