Had a quick look over he meadow area in the park, didn't see many insects other than
Harlequin Ladybird,
Thick-thighed Beetles and a couple of hoverflies - a
Platycheirus sp. and a
Syrphus sp. A
Coal Tit was singing in the pine tree and lots of
Goldfinches singing in the park.

Along Fairlawn Road, Montpelier there was a
Dasysyrphus albostriatus hoverfly - my first for a couple of years. Also a Pill Woodlouse which an expert says might be a
Southern Pill Woodlouse which apparently has one of its strongholds in Bristol. Nearby there was some
Great Quaking Grass near Hurlingham Road which is probably a garden escape but I've not seen it before.

A Queen
Buff-tailed Bumblebee was crawling along St Andrews Road - not sure if she'll survive....
