Paid a brief visit to the Headland with Doreen & David chiefly to look for butterflies & orchids and we recorded the following: Very good numbers of Pyramidal Orchids in the Old Trapping Area with some more near Belle Tout wood. Also 1 Spotted Orchid & the Lizard Orchid. Good numbers of Marbled Whites and Small Skippers and 2 Dark Green Frits.
A flock of Gulls resting in the field at Birling produced several Lesser Black Back Gulls and 1 juvenile Yellow Legged Gull, which quickly departed from the resting flock and eventually headed west towards the Cuckmere.
Poppy field at Frost Hill.
