The highlight along the Bromley Cross stretch this morning was a Southern Hawker. I have seen them at Bank Top before but not in this area. Azure damselflies at Cat Lodge.

Only butterflies were Large Skippers, Meadow Browns & Speckled Woods. Numerous Straw Dots, Nettle-taps, & Celypha lacunana. A Snout was in the woodland at the top of Little Brow. This is a species I do not normally see locally but I have even had a couple in my garden for the last couple of nights.
