Too much today!

Mothing in Portsmouth with a just-after-dawn male Blackbird sat on the trap(!!) with Med Gulls calling overhead. Nothing too different from home but enough to warrant doing again.

Off to Blashford where a few bits in their trap, Hobby twice, a close Kingfisher (but sadly no zoom lens) and plenty of tern action. A few hover flies.
Lunch by the pond and an all-girl junior school party, thankfully very well behaved but enough to frighten John 6x4 off !! Black-tailed Skimmers and Banded Demoiselle were new for the year, and surprisingly the first Common Darter was perched up in the garden upon getting home.
