Luddenden Dean

This afternoon it was perfect weather conditions for a walk around the dean from Jerusalem Farm though there were few birds about.
2 Great Spotted Woodpeckers
2 Kestrels
2+ Nuthatch
1 Willow Warbler
2 Whitethroat along Dry Carr Lane
1 Brown Hare
4 Red Admiral butterflys on a white buddleia looked really good

 Horse Chestnut near Castle Carr (probably diseased)
