Radley Lakes with Jo Cartmell

Wow!  Great day out at Radley Lakes with wildlife expert and photographer Jo Cartmell.  I learnt so much about all the insects on my doorstep.  Never knew that there were so many types of bee!  We saw everything from birds to bugs (oil beetle, ashy mining bee, alderfly, brimstone and orange tip butterflies, a bee-fly, ducklings and a chiffchaff!).  Got carried away and took lots of photographs.  Here's a selection:
