Carlton Marsh - 5th August

c750 Swallows roosted in the reed beds! At least 6 Pipistrelle Bats and a Noctule Bat were feeding over and around the scrape (Dave Smith).

A 'Moth Session' with  Chris Parkin and Dave Smith produced 52 species (39 of which were macros) and included Scarce Footman, The Crescent, Knotgrass, Poplar Hawk Moth, Blood Vein, Brown China Mark, Iron Prominent, Lesser Swallow Prominent, Pebble Prominent, Pebble Hook Tip, Sallow Kitten, Ruby Tiger and Small Phoenix.
