Other insects seen included a few bumblebees and some moths scooting away in the strong wind, perhaps Silver Y.
There were only a few birds about; I saw some swallows, two stonechats, a crow, a jay, a gull, a chaffinch, and a finch-sized bird with a white rump flying into a tree, perhaps a bullfinch. Three mallard loitered on the Moat Pond.
A flash of yellow revealed some Gorse in bloom, alongside some fine purple Bell Heather.
The only fungus to be seen was a brown rollrim. A dead birch trunk was colourful with Common Orange Lichen.
