Red Kite

Red Kite are becoming more regular in these parts of Dorset. The bird flew low over the ridge this afternoon at 1439 whilst I was walking the track at the bottom. The bird re appeared some forty five minutes later in the same area.

Wall Brown

Stonechat of various ages and a Whitethroat were noted along the hedge line along with a mix of butterflies. The first time the lower ridge has been alive this year. Gatekeeper, Meadow Brown, Wall Brown, Small White, Speckled Wood, Common Blue.
