Black is Black - Los Bravos

 The combination of fresh breeze and heavy rain very nearly detered us from flashing up the Moth Traps, but did restrict ourself to just the 2 on home turf. No great shakes, but between them they did

produce a single each of

ANGLE SHADES
along with

LESSER YELLOW UNDERWING

and a reasonable collective of c4

BLACK RUSTICs

plus more

WASPs

in this single catch than has been the collective total across the whole year thus far, and you might also hear the yaffling of a nearby

GREEN WOODPECKER
on the video clip
as the 07:50

easyJet
once again took to the air.

It also looks like RES the Solar Panel People are gearing up to undertake their own grass cutting operations while we managed to 'click' a brace of juvenile

GOLDFINCH

part of a flock of well over 100.

On another day the humble
STOCK DOVE
may well have been overlooked, but with things being the way they are it was very much a case of
Any Port in a Storm!
A this years

OAK APPLE
was considered something of a 'scarce find' but not as rare as Acorns which still remain absent.

As heading south the

EMU

popped its head above the parapit while across the southern fields the

PUMPKINs

have ripened nicely and are now on sale on a 'pick-your-own' basis.
