    Hi, Ian. I visited Cowpen Bewley Woodland Park for an hour on Monday. Not really a birding visit as such. I'd been out with my daughter and we just called in to give the dog a walk before we went home. There were a couple of lesser black-backed gulls on the pond. Just thought I'd mention it in...

They looked like separate species to me. But, as I said, I haven't a clue when it comes to dragonflies/damselflies. Both of these pics...

    Hi Ian, Inspired by your post of yesterday, I made my first ever visit here today, just a couple of hours from 10.00 until midday. It was rather overcast and breezy to start with and birds and insects seemed to be keeping a low profile. I hadn't a clue where to go, so I decided to follow the...

    cracking yellowhammer pic, Ian. I love the way it's framed by the out-of-focus foliage. Gives the impression we're having a private peek into its world. Superb.:t: Malcolm
