5th December 2021
A damp walk along the river through Train Wood to Andersons Meadow and back. Level with Wensum Park four Little Grebes were on the river, with a low Buzzard flyover and a couple of Great Spotted Woodpeckers adding to the avian interest. There was a little bit of fungi about, but I mainly amused myself by turning over leaves, finding a couple of new aphid species in the form of Myzus varians on Clematis and Periphyllus testudinaceus on Norway Maple. I also saw some root nodules on Alder roots, which I think might class as a bacteria-induced gall but need to check that.
