8 of us set out in good conditions for a wander to Standon, returning via Bromley and Ash Valley Golf Course. Being June the birds were in short supply, with singing whitethroat, grey heron and skylarks being the best of a poor assortment. However, insects more than made up for the dirth in birds. Marbled white, red admiral, small tortoiseshell, ringlet, small and large white, small and large skipper, gatekeeper and meadow brown were all recorded along with cantharbis rustica, oedemera nobilis and strangalia maculata. Photos show marbled white and a well lit small tortoiseshell.
