Scaeva pyrastri |
USS GHWB back in the Solent - I'm guessing its the largest ship ever to have anchored here.
Just one juvenile Marsh Harrier, a few distant Buzzards and still four or more Kestrels. Two distant Great-crested Grebes appeared to have two young on the back of one adult. Lots of Common Darters along the sunnier part of the boardwalk and this Southern Hawker, one of two, kept its distance. Two V.inanis and one V.zonaria all on Hemp Agrimony but precious little else.
No sign of any SR-eD on the cafe pond.
South Scrape was virtually birdless with just one Common Sandpiper and a single Teal amongst the other young or moulting quackers.
