Terryland Forest Park Survey 30th June 2013

After a damp start to the day, things did not look good for the transect. Checked the weather satellites and a clear break in the rain was obvious. So geared up and started a little later than normal. Two new butterfly species 2 Ringlets; 5 Meadow Browns; 1 Common Blue; 2 Speckled Wood; 25 Bumblebees various species, 1 Azure Damselfly; Mistle Thrush which brings the bird total to 40. Good day but very wind for taking photos.
