 Green Hairstreak butterfly.


Female and male wheatears.

 Not sure whose egg this is but it's very very tiny.



 White Lion Meadow vole.

Below, some field signs at Edward German Drive, the timber yard and White Lion Meadow.






I was very sad to see a dead water vole at the timber yard. Unusually it was floating in the water, which makes me think it's been killed by a cat and left. A vole which had been poisoned or just died of old age or wounds would go into its burrow. Please keep your cats in between dusk and dawn, and fit their collars with a flashing light like this one. They're very cheap and they make the cat a lot safer too. The number of times I've nearly run over a cat on the road in the dark!
