A voicemail message I picked up tonight, kindly left earlier by Ken Lomas, alerted me to a Spotted Redshank at Collingham Pits on Ferry Lane Lake; however, time wasn't on my side, and I couldn't locate it. But it wasn't a completely fruitless visit - more on that another time though.
Earlier (at work), I'd met some contractors on site to look at work for the Notts BAG Grizzled Skipper project, and saw 3 Grizzled Skippers in a new location at Flawborough, and 2 at Staunton Quarry. Better still, I found a total of 6 GS eggs (5 on one plant) in areas which were cleared of scrub on Flawborough Footpath last winter. There was also a smattering of Common Blues here, my first of the year.
