17 April 2011 (AM) - Clifton Hampton, Oxon

An early morning trip with Max (to give Mum more sleeping time) gave us the opportunty to explore a new site. This time the marshes along the Thames at Clifton Hampton.
Many interesting bits and bobs, some of which I could ID...

At least Max enjoyed a new sport

St Mark's Fly

Tabanus bromius (possible)

Gastrophysa viridula

Small Tortoiseshell

And other stuff I can't ID to species level
