17 July 2021

It was baking hot today, which was good for butterflies and dragonflies.  There are a few whites about at the moment.  Small Whites seem to be the most common and are everywhere.  Green-veined Whites are also fairly common, particularly around the wood on the Blue.

Great Mullein has the tallest spike of flowers on the course and is particularly common on the Red and Green course.

Wood Sage isn't quite as obvious, but grows in the shade to the left of the 14th Red.

A few birds out in the sunshine, but nothing unusual.
