  1. 19/07/2026 - A loop round the runway.

    13 miles along the quiet roads today. We looped the airport which might not sound that nice a place to walk but the roads are good for wild flowers and no people about.

    A few snaps of nice stuff we saw.

    My favourite roadside flower - Lesser sea-spurrey (though maybe sand spurrey!).
    A new hoverfly for me - Cheilosia illustrata (Bumblebee Blacklet)
    Nice to find Yellow Pimpernel in a new place.
    Common Spotted-orchid looking nice.
