Wakeham Railway Cuttings, Penns Wood, St Andrew's Church, Church Ope Cove, Rufus Castle and Mermaid Track
All the action was in Penns wood this morning with 2 Firecrests, 2 Goldcrests and a Blackcap. Elsewhere a Gannet was just off Church Ope Cove and with that warm sun I came across a Common Green Shieldbug, Marmalade Hoverfly and a Muscid Fly.
Here are a few images from today:
