Beddington Farmlands visit

A nice evening at Beddington yesterday. Zach tipped me off on Brown Hairstreaks along the path so we met up in the evening and indeed Zach found another one (a Beddington lifer for me) and we also had a bonus Marsh Harrier flying high over towards the north east. Also Common and Green Sand, Lapwings and also Shoveler and Teal numbers beginning to build. Autumn migration is well and truly underway. 

Brown Hairsteak (at last!)

Always fashionably late to the breeding party- the first Tufted Ducks have appeared recently
