Mad dogs and Sand Lizards...

Please ignore yesterday's post about mythical Sand Lizards: they do appear to exist after all - found 2 males today after 4 more hours of searching in Wareham Forest. These stunning creatures appeared in the heat of the mid-day sun to a melancholic soundtrack of Woodlark and Willow Warbler. Also saw my first Wheatear, Whitethroat, House Martin and (later at Stanpit Marsh) Garganey of 2010 today.
