Definitely a 'right place at the right time' situation! <br /><br />Thanks also for confirming my suspicions! Sometimes identification is tricky in windy wet conditions (for me anyway!).<br /><br />I'm glad I now know what a Bee-Fly looks like :) Lou Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933986820262509435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1627991011532369893.post-6944574422124549672013-04-15T21:04:25.000+01:002013-04-15T21:04:25.000+01:00Thanks Tom :) I hadn't a clue what it was so I...Thanks Tom :) I hadn't a clue what it was so I appreciate you enlightening me!

Great that you saw Swallows and House Martin too. I wasn't able to get out with the camera yesterday so haven't seen them here yet this year but I've heard they have been seen locally. <br /><br />I agree, there is something very special about Skylarks, a lovely sight and sound. Yes, I definitely agree with your Linnet identification and with your commenter who said your insect is a Bee-Fly. <br /><br />A delightful day indeed and a very interesting post too. It was also lovely to see you and Bracken :-)ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1627991011532369893.post-51098977203859331872013-04-14T21:58:18.076+01:002013-04-14T21:58:18.076+01:00Amazing birds!
