Wintersett 08.06.15

11°C with 4/8 scattered cloud and a light north easterly.
Anglers CP:  Oystercatcher 2 adults + 2 young and Green Woodpecker 1.
Wintersett Res: Common Tern 1.
Moth Twitch: Cliff's blog on June 3rd, which inlcluded Chris Parkin's report of the butterflies on Barrow Tip, inspired us to twitch the day-flying Burnet Companion moth there.  We saw 8 this afternoon, in the short time when the sun broke through the cloud. A Cuckoo was calling as we left Blacker Lane.
