Seen on Brook Trail walk today

A mixed party of 15 today had a glorious sunny walk through Brook Wood (beautiful colony of Large Bitter-cress, 2 Speckled Woods, 3 Blackcaps, Chiffchaffs, Jay; down the Mill Hill valley (3 stunning male Orange-tips, one Red Admiral, Bluebells, Marsh Marigolds) and along the canal (2 Mallard families, one Stock Dove, calls of Nuthatch and Woodpecker). Also one Holly Blue among the houses. Best, though, was the lady who called out to say that her children could now play safely in Brook Wood below their house! Well done, all!  - George
