Hume's Horseshoe Plantation 4th November

The last Hume's I saw was in the same East Sussex wood on December 31st 2007 and was #342

and the final species in my and Wreny's grueling Big Year, this time round I enjoyed this eastern waife in the splendid company of me olde mucka Ewan 'two eyes' Urquhart.
