21 June 2022 - Hollingworth Lake
Speckled Wood by the Willow Patch, a Red Admiral on a stone wall and Chimney Sweepers in the long grass across the lake, plus a singing Wren
Not many interesting birds around today, but the nice warm weather continues, so it's that time of year when attention turns to butterflies and other insects.
A Wren sang by the roadside again, and a Goldfinch was feeding on thistles just to the right of the hide. A Speckled Wood landed briefly on a Beech just near where the stream runs under the path by the Willow Patch. On the far side of the lake, a few Chimney Sweepers were once again fluttering among the long grass but never settling. A Red Admiral did however settle on a stone wall long enough for a lateral shot.
