Invertebrate highlights in the park this afternoon included an attractive black and white
Ichneumon, a
Wolf Spider and a
Helophilus hoverfly. There was some
Chicken of the Woods fungus growing on the dead tree trunks. Nearby was some
Redshank (Persicaria) growing in a large patch.

In Fairlawn Road there were 5 or 6
Small White butterflies, a
Volucella zonaria hoverfly and
Xylota segnis and
Syrphus hoverflies. In Station Road near the Royal Mail office was a
Harlequin Ladybird larva and in the flat this morning I disturbed a
Silver Y moth.
