Brian found this tiny insect with very long antennae and managed to get a photograph. As yet it is unidentified. Books will be out to see if we can track down its name!
Wood Avens, also known as Herb Bennet, are growing on the banksides of Risedale Beck. Their flower is yellow and smaller than that of Water Avens.
The cooler weather was keeping the insects close to the ground. This Large Red Damselfly moved around the blade of grass but eventually sat still for this photograph to be taken.
Swallows and House Martins were feeding over the wetland this afternoon as the temperature rose.
