30/03/2024-Views, Buzzard, Skylark, Fox and daffodil on a brilliant walk at Hook-with-Warsash on this fine and sunny day. My first Small Tortoiseshell butterfly of the year, Speckled Wood, ladybirds, my first greater stitchwort and garlic mustard of the year, lesser celandine, gorse, Mediterranean Gull, Shelduck, Little Egret, Wigeon, Ringed Plover, Curlews, Oystercatcher, Sparrowhawk, lovely Linnets and Roe Deers were other highlights with Cetti's Warbler and Chiffchaffs head, Starlings and Goldfinches enjoyed at home and my first marsh marigold of the year on the way to Hook-with-Warsash. A sensational spring day with Skylarks singing, butterflies flitting by and a host of colourful wildflowers among many uplifting sights.
