A
Hobby over Hurlingham Road this afternoon - the first for the patch although it was always on the 'likely' list. Nearby 2
Jays and a
Chiffchaff.
Invertebrates were good today - at Fairlawn Road there was a
Tachina fera fly, a
Small White butterfly, several mating
Green Shieldbugs and both
Nursery Web and '
Xtycus'
Crab Spiders.

At St Andrews Road the invertebrate highlights were a couple of
Ashy Mining Bee (Andrena cineria) and a new species for me,
Gooden's Nomad Bee (Nomada goodeniana) which I think is a Cuckoo bee that parisitises mining bee nests.

In the garden,
House Sparrows were seen collecting nesting material.
