Delicate

A glorious sunny morning with a trickle of fairly predictable early October migrants here including a handful of new Chaffs, Goldies, Goldcrests, Firecrest, Blackie, Redpoll, Reed Bunt, Goldcrest, Great spot, Brambling & a dozen Long-tailed Tits. Wheatear still on the reserve & Sandwich Tern offshore. Vis mig & offshore movements very poor. In the moth traps the Delicate. Also worth a mention that following the finding of a Woodland Grasshopper in the moth trap a week ago several more were found on the reserve yesterday - how long have they been here ?
