St Andrews Park!

An hour spent in the meadow area produced Buff-tailed and Red-tailed Bumblebees, a Leaf-cutter Bee, several Honey Bees, a Marmalade Hoverfly and both Speckled Wood and Red Admiral butterflies. A pair of Azure Damselflies were ovipositing in the pond and there were zillions of Tadpoles. A Wren was seen and a Coal Tit was singing nearby.

At the station this morning a Blackcap was singing and a single Issus coleoptratus bug was sitting on a ragwort stem.
