EVENING STROLL

A little cooler and fresher today; I took a short early evening stroll around Stanton Park, the temperature was still showing 23 degrees, but that was 10 degrees less than the same time yesterday! A few butterflies enjoying some late sunshine, mainly meadow browns, and three commas. Also saw two herons on the main lake, and a family of moorhens on one of the smaller ponds.
