| Mmoring at Great haywood beside Shugborough Estate |
We only moored up overnight at Great Haywood but I did have a quick look at what was about. We were beside a weedy grass verge with a gravel path up the middle, beside which was a thin line of brambles & Common Nettles along a wire fence.
There were some small Meradowsweet & Hogweed plants beside the boat. The Hogweed was frequented by Syrphus ribesii, a type of Hover- fly.

There were also a few flying insects which I think are bees, although they could be some sort of fly. I can't find them in my book anywhere, they were slightly bigger than the Hover-flies and also feeding on the Hogweed.
