Just a stroll around the neighbourhood this afternoon. At the station there was an
Early Bumblebee - an attractive species I don't see that often. Unfortunately it was too quick for the camera and I only managed one blurred shot. On the railway track was a bee-mimic hoverfly,
Merodon equestris. Not sure why it kept returning to the track ballast unless it was deriving some kind of nutrient from the stone. A few
Small White butterflies were patrolling the disused platform.

There were several
Creeping Cinquefoil flowers dotting the verge at the top of St Andrews Road - another terrible photo I'm afraid.

Last night there was a visiting
Light Emerald moth attracted by my kitchen light.
