St Andrews Park

Looks like the rotting wood habitat in the shaded area is playing host to a nest of Tree Bumble Bees Bombus hypnorum. I noticed lots of coming and going this morning, with bees seemingly entering through a hole on the underside of one of the logs. I was unable to take any good photos as they move so fast.

Also a Small China-mark moth in the meadow and some White Campion in flower..

Birds in the park included a couple of singing Chaffinches, 3 Greenfinches and lots of Blackbirds.

Yesterday I had a Myathropa florea hoverfly in the bathroom and a Jumping Spider (probably a Salticus spexies) on the windowsill.
