Not a great deal of wildlife reported of note today as the weather has been quite blustery with sunshine and a few showers.
A morning stint at Blueberry Farm, Maidwell this morning located two Common Redstarts and a Spotted Flycatcher and birds at Harrington Airfield today included a vocal Common Redstart and still the Wheatear at Bunker One. Two Yellow-legged Gulls at Pitsford Reservoir again included a begging juvenile and a colour-ringed Black-headed Gull is likely to be a foreign-ringed individual (details submitted).
As the butterfly season begins to subside the local specialities ebb away but two Silver-washed Fritillaries were on the wing at Salcey Forest this afternoon.
