Last night seemed to perfect for moth catching as it was very warm and humid, However, in the 2 hrs Chris Parkin and I were there we only managed 15 species of macro moth. These included Ghost Moth, Barred Straw, Light Emerald and Small Fan Foot.
As we were catching a trio of Tawny Owl owlets constantly called from the trees around us in the darkness.
A Common Tern was present again and more Kingfisher photos were taken by Harold Heath & Clive Mitchell from the hide this morning.
Insects included 1 Painted Lady, 6 Small Tort., 73 Meadow Brown, 26 Ringlet, 12 Large Skipper, 21 Small Skipper, 5 Common Blue, 2 Brimstone, Common Darter and a Black-tailed Skimmer (C. Parkin/K. Bannister).
