I spent the morning of this warm sunny day gardening, seeing a Red-tailed Bumblebee and loads of ladybirds.
A walk early evening brought a lapwing hovering around a redshank as though it wanted to chase it off but couldn't be bothered.

"Now what did I come out here for?"
A water rail that I hadn't noticed slipped away into the undergrowth; but evidently deciding I was harmless, left the shadowy banks and treated me to fabulous views as it foraged along the waterline.
