the bees knees

WeBS on Sunday morning was probably the quietest ever, with 2 Reed Warblers in the settling reed beds the highlight. A walk round CCF found 3 singing Tree Pipits, but no Redstarts, Pied Fly's or Wood Warbs, yet.
The lack of migrants extended to Craig Fargoed where the Whinchats are not yet back. A signing Redstart was a welcome addition to my year list, but neither owl species showed.

As is becoming regular at the moment a new mining bee was found - Ashy Mining Bee - a smart, black and white bee. White-tailed and Common Carder Bumblebees were also added to the years bee list.
