Lakenheath Fen







 Ann's RPS visit to RSPB Lakenheath Fen turned up four Hobbies, probably juveniles from their lack of orange 'trousers', industriously purging the skies of the shoals of dragonflies.  One I snapped was a Sparrowhawk.  I also saw Bearded Reedlings in the wild for the first time in many years.  The spider is Araneus marmora [no common English name].  I saw not one single Marsh Harrier, and even the post in Joist Fen was empty of its customary Cormorant.
