All Or Nothing - Small Faces

Careful might be the correct word to describe my driving prowess and while transiting from A to B on the Farm, even more 'sluggish'. Despite this, it was a close call yesterday morning when rounding the corner to Gibbet's Firs nearly running over c3 of the Little Ringed Plover which have become rangy but favouring the Irrigation Pond. Numbers of both Insects and Species over the last few days have only been moderate, but even then the odd new addition to the PCF List happens along.
Still a small element of doubt hanging over it the 'probable' became
SLENDER PUG
an addition to the Recording Area List.
Some of the following images have been in cold storage for a while,
so in an attempt to catch up here are
 TREBLE BROWN-SPOT
 NARROW-WINGED PUG
on Swarovski 10 x 32's
 GREY PUG
 SERAPHIM
SMALL SERAPHIM
 MARBLED WHITE SPOT
 CLOUDED-BORDERED BRINDLE
 SHEARS
 TRUE LOVER'S KNOT
along with
MAYFLY
After the 'glut' of last weekend's bonanza we have been reduced to
snapping away at such things as Woodlice and Cows but we all know the feeling,
Feast or Famine.
 PILL WOODLOUSE and WHITE-LEGGED MILLIPEDE
feeding from the carcass of a 
SMOOTH NEWT
 PILL WOODLOUSE
 STRIPED MILLIPEDE
On the outside of the actinic battery trap this morning, the strange sight

of a
BLACK SLUG
 devouring a 'Carpet/Wave' type Moth.
 No awards here but a very lucky moment
EGYPTIAN GOOSE
 At long last over many hours of observations we think we have
located a second nest of
 LITTLE RINGED PLOVER
This caption was written a number of days ago and never got to press,
and as far as we know the LRP didn't do the business either.
 Yes, we've been here before but how do you resist the magnificence?
 LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL
 JACKDAW
FRESIAN
still on the banks of the River Stour
Our first and as it stands, only attempt at
WOODCOCK
at dusk - must try harder!
