My tern.
Sky tonight, view, agrimony and wild carrot at Lakeside Country Park at lunch time and buddleia and Goldfinch in the garden today 16th June 2026 I also saw a young Goldfinch this morning and a Purple Hairstreak which I was thrilled to see at Lakeside Country Park yesterday evening. It's always a joyful and uplifting moment catching glimpses of these exquisite oak top drifters. They're one of my favourite butterflies, it's an honour to have them so close to home and there's always a sense of achievement at seeing them for me as you could so easily miss them and you just have to look for the slightest movement at the top of the oaks as you notice them starting to flutter by.
Other highlights on Lakeside walks today were Marbled White, Meadow Brown, hedge woundwort, wood dock, Long-tailed Tit, House Martins, Great Crested Grebes and Moorhen. Other highlights of recent days between Lakeside and Martin Down again on Sunday have been my first Ringlets of the year across both locations another great summer species, Comma, Red Admiral and White Admiral in perhaps one of my greatest ever few weeks for butterflies with so many beautiful and incredible species seen right in the thick of the summer weeks where so many species are about as well as Common Tern, Black-and-yellow Longhorn beetle and Marmalade hoverfly.

Trick or treat! Do you ever catch/band gulls? :)
You know, I have never caught a gull. I don't get a lot of opportunities to do waterbird or shorebird stuff. BUT. I was very much treated to an evening out to go band Common Tern chicks once, so that's what I have for you today! A gull relative! They were nesting on a pretty cool experimental platform off Assateague, where dredging has removed most of the sandbars they would naturally use. Nice to see local biologists there doing very clever and inventive things to make up for the problems we've caused, sheesh.
Banded with permits by trained researchers, photographed for documentation and released back onto the little floating shell platform so it could go hide with its friends :)
