Montpelier Park and station!

This morning in the children's play area there was a collection of feathers on the grass which looked typical of a Sparrowhawk kill. Nearby a party of Great and Blue Tits were feeding in the trees. Near the Old Vicarage a Nephrotoma sp. Cranefly was hiding and near the station a Green Shieldbug was sitting on a leaf. On the wall along the station platform two Tegenaria sp. House Spiders were eyeing each other up.

A Sycamore leaf near the station had some galls on it, probably formed by a mite.
