My regular walk around Pathways Care Farm, saw only the second RED VEINED DARTER for the site. Again a very good record. There us also on site 15 BEE ORCHID'S which is again another first for Pathways. Surprisingly I noticed them way back in December and dispite some being eat ny MUNCJACK DEER we manged to protect and raise enough for a good view. Our MUTE SWAN after over 50 days managed to get severen cygnits of which is the most we have ever had. There was also a an influx of MALLARD with 13 young in all.
