Saturday's offerings

Hello

Debbie and Eric revisited Titchmarsh Reserve at Thrapston today and saw much the same birds as yesterday which included two Great White Egrets and the Turnstone. In addition an Osprey showed well there and a Common Sandpiper appeared too.

A Raven was at Hanging Houghton today and interesting insects in the garden included several Hornets, a Southern Hawker dragonfly and butterflies such as Painted Lady, Comma and Brimstone.

Summer Leys is a favourite nature reserve but for some time now road access to the reserve from Great Doddington village has not been possible due to damage caused to the bridge. It is likely that this road closure will persist as a long term issue and access is only possible from the Wollaston village direction. My thanks to John Tilly for the latest update.

Regards
