It makes a change to see different insect life from that of the chalk downlands. I expected to see many dragonflies, in the end just one Emperor showed around midday even though the sun had been out since dawn. Plenty of Grasshoppers though, very few sounding off but many obligingly sitting after being flushed from the long grass.
I dropped into Old Lodge to relocate the Bullfinches that I had seen previously, no luck but both the Stonechat and Redstart broods that I had seen are fast reaching maturity and adult plumage is starting to show.
