Railway walk

After lunch we decided to go for a walk along the old railway town to Turners Field. It was lovely and warm even under the expanding canopy.
Turner's Field has a small herd of Herefords which were clustered round licking a spot just inside the kissing gate. A buzzard soared up and over. We walked round one of the fields and as we got to the bottom there was a rough patch with some flowers and where there were at least 5 Meadow Browns, 8/9 Common Blues, a Small White and a couple of Gatekeepers.
On the way back I found some Shieldbugs, first on some Hedge Woundwort and then on some nettles, plus a Speckled Wood flicking it's wings in a sunny spot. Very relaxing.
