| Marsh Tit, Poecile palustris |
On Friday I joined Neil Hulme's work party at Rewell Wood where we widened a ride to create more woodland floor for the wood violets, food plant of the Pearl-bordered Fritillary. My friend Terry who lives nearby, joined me. I hope I can do as much work as he did if I reach 81 years! We saw a pair of Marsh Tits feeding on the path. We then visited Angmering Estate woods and I found a queen Hornet hibernating under the bark of a rotting log.
I returned to Rewell Wood on Saturday and saw one Marsh Tit in a yew tree and a Firecrest. On Sunday and today a Goldcrest appeared in the same place.
