Devon Dude-ing


And what can be dude-ier than wandering around Stover?

Having some time in the middle of the day today, I tried Stover in the hope the sun would pull a repeat of yesterday's surprise swelterer.

No such luck.

I got rained on.

Ok, drizzled on, but still...

6 flavours of odonata, with one brave pair of Azures ovipositing, single Emperor and Common Hawker patrolling, and everything else cowering....

I did see some very nice birds though! At least 5 Bullfinches were using the feeder, plus Marsh Tits and a male GSW - he even showed off to a family [with an unusually quiet kid, 'tis true]. Plus hordes of Blue, Great, Coal and Long-tailed in all ages. There was also a very pretty Treeeecreeeper [not on the feeder, though!]
