A Week of Bits and Bobs

A strange week for me, lots  of failures (as per), but some good moments as well. A week when we had a Greenshank drop in at Loddy, and pose around the mudflats. I'm not going to moan that it wasn't close enough for good pics, because it was just great to see one there. I've not got very many Greenshank shots,,,, in fact not one good one. I did my best with my 'walkabout' bird gear, but only record shots really.
   I tried the East Weares again, with Dennis, to try for better Chalkhill Blue shots, but they were far too busy really. That failure was negated a bit by the terrific views of a Raven family squabbling with crows, and the sighting of a Jersey Tiger moth.
   Today (after mum duty) i had an hour out at Triple 'H', and noted that a few Grayling were about, along with all of the seasonal things HHH is known for, some good looking Emerald damselflies, and really red male Ruddy darters in particular.
  Great to meet a young naturalist Tori there today too.
