In the afternoon we went to Bryngarw Park and saw a Dipper and a noisy family of Nuthatch (2 parents and 3 fledglings). We also found some plants on the flood plain.
Marsh Marigold (Caltha palustris)
Ivy leaved Water Crowfoot (Ranunculus hederaceus)
Creeping Buttercup (Ranunculus repens)
Hairy Dragonfly (Brachytron pratense)
Male Fern (Dryopteris filix-mas
With the sun shining, the butterflies were out.
We think this one is a Green Veined White (Pieris napi) Please tell us if we have got it wrong.
Orange Tip (Anthocaris cardamines)
Common Blue (Polyommatus icarus)
A trip to the river with our fishing nets and we caught some bay trout.
Baby trout are also called 'Fry'
After a busy day we enjoyed a drink, chips and the view from a pub beer garden.
Ticked off the list were
Sand Martin
Whimbrel
Fry (Trout)
Water Crowfoot
Buttercups
Dragonfly
King Cups (Marsh Marigold)
Male Fern
