Standing on the Shoulder of Giants - Oasis

It always feels rewarding when catching yet another Macro Moth new for the year which, on the day was a

GREY SHOULDER-KNOT
followed by a performing

and acrobatic

HAWTHORN SHIELDBUG
All at ether pond was a posing cock
PHEASANT
strutting his stuff in the direction of a lone
FEMALE
The Solar Panel fence were dripping with most pleasing, dew soaked
Spiders Webs
while what was above was also most pleasing to the eye.
Again due to the weather it was thought more prudent not to flash up the Traps on the Heath, but already it seemed like some sort of compensation was within earshot as after a longish pause
vocal
WOODLARK

had retuened to the scene.
As if striking at the same time a couple of
STONECHAT
had also shown up.
Only checking the traps for any signs of
damage this rather pleasing
BLACK SLUG
had also sought shelter underneath one of them while also close by
a small patch of unidentified Fungi.
Again, some time was spent on the mist shrouded Bridleway close to the
Sewerage Works
in hopes of a Black Redstart or less common Warbler but without success.
Here's hopeing for Tomorrow.
