Dog day afternoon

Pleased to get Cynomya mortuorum in the garden this afternoon, haven't seen many round here and this is the first for the garden. The longhorn beetle Tetrops praeustus is fairly common in Norfolk, but I don't think you get it in Scotland? A few other bits included Royal Fern along one of my brackish dykes. It's fairly common in the sand dunes and willows along the coastal strip, but I wasn't really expecting it in the square. A Reed Warbler was in the garden this morning.
