Ockham Common

Work has been getting to me.  It shouldn't.  Escaping for an evening to one of Surrey's heathlands was a much better alternative to drinking.

Ockham Common lies just off the A3 and very close to the M25.  A crazy juxaposition, listening to the subtle chorus of birdsong against the distant hum of frenzied mass transit.

The habitat looks great but digging out a couple of Dartford Warbler including a young bird, and a male Stonechat was all I could manage.  Dartford's so close to the M25.

A wonderfully warm and serene evening, the stresses of the world were soon forgotten.
