Just a few from a wander around Ben Rhydding Gravel Pits<\/a>. A Hare and my first Damselfly of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plenty of Chiffchaff and Blackcap to be heard but seldom seen. The highlights were the Hare ( I did have to check – Hares run with tail down, Rabbits run with tails up) and the first Damselfly of the year for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was good to watch a Treecreeper going up the trees and then down to the next one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bee Fly is not very clear but they are at least interesting looking insects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

If you are using a phone the caption can take up most of the space of the thumbnail so you might find it easier to turn your phone to landscape to open the gallery. I am hoping to change that for the site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
