We encourage local residents to let us know of wildlife sightings.
We have been told that in the last few days Nightingales have been heard and seen in the area surrounding East Field!
Two reports are for sightings of the Painted Lady butterfly.
Pyramidal Orchids are fairly common in gardens and fields in the village and these are now showing where mowing in lawns is watched closely. Probably flowering in June.
We would like to encourage more gardeners to look out for them before the mower gets too close!
Bumble bees are very busy too. Identification is needed.
We are lucky that our local farmer keeps wide wild margins round his fields which must help wildlife a great deal.
We hope to receive more sightings over the next few weeks.
