St Andrews Park

After the rain stopped at lunchtime I ventured out to St Andrews Park and was delighted to see a Southern Hawker dragonfly basking in the sunshine. Nearby there was lots of Hemp Agrimony growing near the children's play area attracting bees and flies, including what might be a White-tailed Bumblebee plus a few Eristalis hoverflies. A few Goldfinches and Greenfinches were heard.

Elsewhere, 2 Jays were calling at the top of St Andrews Road.
