On Saturday I assisted with the Sussex Search and Rescue exhibit
at the Horsham Hospital Fete. The weather was kind and two visitors
expressed an interest in running for us at the London Marathon. As we are a self funded charity these are very
welcome offers.
Auctioneer Rupert Toovey opened the fete and talked to the SusSAR crew |
On Sunday I visited different parts of Rewell Wood twice. In
the morning I found two bug species. The Plant bug is a new one for me. In
the afternoon I had 27 sightings of Pearl-bordered Fritillaries between 5 and
6:40pm, including many brief mid-air fights. Then I found 2 roosting specimens on buddleia. I
also saw 2 Speckled Yellow moths and a Brown Silver-line moth.
