Another posting from the phone so no control over labels. Will edit at work?

Red-legged Partridge 'singing' from woodpile.
Eyeball to Eyeball with Tawny Owl and biting Horse flies the high/low lights the morning.

Scarlet Pimpernel Anagallis arvensis. Hedge Woundwort Stachys sylvatica. Yellow Shell Camptogramma bilineata. Mesembrina meridiana Noon Fly. Harvestman.

 

I think the gnat-like fly is Empis livida.
