Fingringhoe Sand Quarry - Wed 18 Jun

This afternoon I stayed close to the cottage and popped along to the sand quarry. It was pretty quiet though there were a few bumblebees around, I could identify the White-tailed Bumblebee easily enough but the other species was a little more tricky and I think they were Red-shanked Bumblebees...but I'll happily stand corrected! Just round the corner from the sand quarry was the barn where I had seen the Little Owl a couple of days earlier, so I stopped off and within a few minutes two Little Owls put in an appearance.

 

Also from this site I saw a distant Marsh Harrier, a nice way to end the day.
