A May update from the Green - meadow saxifrage, reed bunting and a pair of beautiful broad-bodied chaser dragonfly!

The orchids are starting to flower, so are well worth a visit.
Also, the cattle will be turned onto the Green in the next week or so.

Really thrilled to have heard a water rail on the Green yesterday! A rare visitor indeed. He was skulking by the brook, in the very overgrown and boggy area.
Photo NOT taken yesterday, but at WWT Slimbridge, earlier on in the year!
