Bird wise local interest was the usual, but very close, Grey Heron sadly only catching a tiddler rather than than something more impressive. A Cetti's has called a few times and a Grey Wagtail was minding its business along the exposed shoreline until flushed by two Magpies - this was my first here since last autumn's little flurry of records.
Nothing better than Volucella inanis and plenty of Myathropa florea the latter favouring the small patches of Fleabane. A few Holly Blues and the odd hawker dragonfly, either Southern or Migrant.
The solitary wasp Astata boops has sat up on the wooden fence rail on several occasions, a species I'm only used to seeing on sandy heath areas like Petersfield or Pulborough.
Most interest, in small doses, has come from overnight moth traps with a small but good run of Garden and Jersey Tigers plus firsts of Poplar Hawkmoth, Small Square Spot, Tawny Speckled Pug, Cochylis molliculana, Enarmonia forsana and notable records of White Point, Small Dusty Wave, Pebble Hooktip and Pyrausta despicata.
