On the way to the Garden Centre at Lodmoor there were lots of Swifts, Swallows & House Martins over the reserve. At the Garden Centre there was a Buzzard soaring above us and a Green Woodpecker calling from the trees close by.

The garden is coming along great and new flowers and shrubs are all in place. Even the local bees were interested in the fuchsias.
Only highlights today were a Chiffchaff calling from the back of next doors garden and a Robin singing in sub-song, right next to me. A Harvestman (Phalangiidae) possibly Paroligolophus agrestis was climbing the wall in the courtyard.
A few before and after shots of the garden and the harvestman.
