Hi Seymour
I forgot to mention that we saw a slightly unusual summer visitor yesterday at Woolhampton Gravel pits, it was a brimstone butterfly flying backwards and forwards along the riverbank opposite where we sat watching the kingfisher.
It's the first butterfly I have seen this year

Chiffchaff and Sand Martins have arrived up here in South West Lancashire. It's a fantastic sight amid all the gloom around at the moment
