A vist to the Heath and Moor


A break in the weather saw me heading out to Hartland Moor and the surrounding heath land to look for some raptors in the afternoon. Not a bad afternoon for my first visit to the moor with two Buzzards circling high above the heath, a Kestrel working the moor and heath for rodents or small birds and a Sparrow Hawk flying fast past along the tree line  next to the road then in to a small copse.
A few dragonflies flying about and some small butterflies like this Small Copper, well that's what I think it is and a few Stone Chats on Stoborough heath

View over the moor towards Corfe Castle
