There were a lot of tawny mining bees and hairy footed flower bees, but new for the year were hoverflies and what I think is a nomad cuckoo bee.
Judging by the bites I've had, there's been a lot of midge type things kicking around too!
In the afternoon as I walked around the two lakes, butterflies were on the agenda with the highlight being the first orange tips of spring, one of whom was kind enough to pose for just long enough. A somewhat tired looking peacock did the same.
In other news I've been looking at flats and went into an agency but the fees! £250 to sign up.
Sheesh.
Si
There'll soon be some more ladybirds by the look of it!
ReplyDeleteThat Orange Tip Butterfly photo is a bit special, very sharp.
ReplyDeleteOrange tips are out here too but I’ve yet to see the hairy footed flower bees. Must get a new lithodora they love them. Good luck with the house hunting.
