Exodus - Bob Marley and the Wailers - Part I

 It was about due but yesterday saw the first of the expected movement, of Birds, southwards. With a decent few images it might be prudent to treat each species of Bird individually with some other well placed Wildlife as punctuation. At the Moth Traps there was much to see but only a single species being added to the Year List in the form of a single

SMALL WAINSCOT

with a resurgence, by way of a second generation of close cousins

COMMON WAINSCOT
(bet that has brightened your day??)

along with

STENICHNUUMON MILITARIUS
along with a number of

RED-LEGGED SHIELDBUGS
As we highlighted with the last largeish movement of

SWALLOWs,

particularly juveniles, we only usually see a single wave but while numbers were much lower than the first the count was of but 8 individuals

including a single

parent bird.

For punctuation

 COMMON TOADFLAX

Takes some thinking about this flying south.

MEADOW BROWN

and there's more

along with possible

MINER BEE

excavations on the Heath.

See You Next Year!
