Moths - slow but improving...

Getting to the productive period for this square, lots out there. The easiest group to add new species with little effort is moths, so it would be nice to lose these easterlies and get a warm gentle SW wind. A nice soldier fly in the garden this morning. A walk along the dyke yesterday produced an increase in dragonflies, including 10 Hairy Dragonflies and 5 Four-spotted Chasers.

  1. See now I feel guilty for not giving those micros their English names! I remember good times watching Hobbies hunting in Norfolk. Cracking birds
