More New Moths

Had the MV light trap running all night last night, and though the haul was a little disappointing in terms of numbers a couple of new ones more than made up for it.

Another Wheatear along the trck this morning, a nice bright male, but was soon disturbed by the local game-keeper doing his rounds. We now have four Siskin at the feeders, a pair of pairs, they seem to enjoy the niger seed the most, then sunflower.
