It was pretty quiet bird-wise but I was pleased to find a settled Dingy Skipper by the dragonfly pond and also a Red Admiral showing off its underwing nearby. Cuckoo Flower or Ladies Smock is now in flower and Pale Flax is just making an appearance. Cut-leaved Cranesbill is one flower I’m not sure I’ve noticed before. The only other things of note were a Song Thrush singing by the N entrance to Cogan Wood and at least 6 large Carp just below the surface of E lake near the canoe launch platform.
