female
BLACKBIRD
while on the Heath there was very little to rob with the best of a sorry bunch being a welcome
OAK BUSH CRICKET
maybe second generation
POPLAR HAWK-MOTH
along with a

COMMON REDSTART
which we will
MILK
for all it is worth
as only the 3rd record
across the 10 years
we have been observing this plot.
QUALITY over QUANTITY
