This morning at the station a cat was sat on the platform near the tunnel looking at something and, following its gaze I saw a
Fox sat in the grass. Nearby there were more
Cinnabar Moth caterpillars on the Ragwort plants and on the wall was a tiny spider called
Theridion varians - a pretty little thing but this species has loads of different colours so not easy to identify. A
Coal Tit was singing this morning too, not that common at the station, tending to prefer the park.
