Exodus - Bob Marley and the Wailers - Part II

Compared to previous days, a bit of a brighter start as we plucked

LEAST YELLOW UNDERWING
and
SQUARE-SPOT RUSTIC
from the depths of the traps and while not overley eye-catching both were destined for the
Year List!
After a Brief Encounter with a juvenile hen
PHEASANT
we headed for the Sewerage works where all that was found
was a welcome bunch of returning
BLACK-HEADED GULLs
most likely from Poole harbour in the south than anything to do with
EXODUS.
A brief stop to take in the blue-blooms of our first
CHICORY
of the year which will certainly not be the last of this common plant.
Within the Solar Panel Compound the temporary residents
a couple of
WHEATEAR
heading in the direction of the
EQUATOR
but not before 'bunkering'
on the ready and ample supply of Invertibrates across this rich pasture!
With little else to keep us we wandered down to the
Maize Fields
but more to investigate what the 'subsiduary crop' might be?
No difficulty in identifying
PUMPKIN
which we are given to believe are for the Halloween Market?
