I spent a couple of hours having a mooch around Smockmill Common at Saxlingham Nethergate yesterday. Concentrating on the wet areas by the River Tas I found a few items of interest amongst the dead reed stems and emerging comfrey plants.
There were snails everywhere with White-lipped Snail, Amber Snail, Garden Snail and Copse Snail, the latter being a new one for me. On the comfrey I found the rather strange-looking and moth-like Pneumia nubila, the cranefly Limnophila schranki and Nettle Plant Bug, Liocoris tripustulatus. One Common Toad, Mistle Thrush, Tapered Drone Fly and Hairy-footed Flower Bee were the best of the rest.
