Moseley Green and Brandricks Green Wildlife Survey

Grid Ref SO 644 138

 

The team met at Mallards Pike lake and split into two - one team went to Moseley Green and the other team went to Brandwicks Green.

This is a profuse cone flowering on a Scots Pine

 

 

The Common Blue butterfly ( now in decline) is showing its blue upper wing colour this time.

 

We think this is a skeleton of a frog.
