18 May 2025

 

I played the Blue course again today.  Nice to see the Yellow Flag Irises coming into flower in the marshy area on the 9th.

The caterpillars of the Peacock Butterfly feed exclusively on nettles.  There were plenty on this patch.  The adults are more attractive than their larvae!

Lots of Mistle Thrushes around the estate at the moment.  This one was near the 6th green.

Really nice to see that Spotted Flycatchers have returned again this year.  This was one of a pair by the 10th tee.
