    Not flying or buzzing, but does run pretty fast!

    Rescued this from the bath today and took a few shots before releasing it. Not terribly sharp as photo was taken through the side of the glass I captured it in. Tried for a shot after I let it out but it scarpered PDQ.

      Small bees I think? They have small brown bodies.

      There are a lot of them and they keep climbing into the holes made by my fork while aerating the lawn. They arent aggressive at all.


      Also as I was sitting with my neighbour in her garden last evening, an adult fox came over the back fence (there is a small copse) and stood on the roof of the shed eyeing us up.
      I was astonished. It was so bold. Ive had to rethink things as I usually keep the back doors open- I thought it was just cats I had to contend with, not face chewing foxes.

      Early morning (cool and very windy) walk around Lodmoor RSPB reserve.
      The usual migrants have arrived, nothing exciting but a few pics of what was around.
      Common Terns.
