Fairlawn Road produced some good bugs today. There was my first
7-Spot Ladybird along with a couple of
Harlequins, a
Dark Bush Cricket, a
Nursery-web Spider, a
Green Shieldbug and a
Sawfly sp. Some good hoverflies too, with a smart-looking
Xanthogramma, a
Xylota segnis, a
Helophilus pendulus and a couple of
Myathropa florea. An attractive
Crane-fly in the
Nephrotoma family was a good find and, best of all, a
Wasp Beetle basking on a leaf. A
Speckled Wood butterfly was also present.

At the station there was a teneral
Azure Damselfly and a
Rose Chafer. A
Jackdaw flew over and a
Blackcap sang.
