Plenty of activity over the garden this afternoon with 6 Swallows, 2 Swifts and a Buzzard being mobbed by several Herring Gulls.
In the garden a Ringlet, Large White, Red Admiral and a Cinerous Pearl moth, the latter flew out of the tin shack when I moved a bin out of the way.
Also a new addition to my insect list a 7-spot Ladybird (Coccinella septempunctata) which I came across in the courtyard.
A 7-spot Ladybird checks out the bee hotel.
