On these cold clear crisp mornings with the tide low then the Cormorants like to get out early and will have left their roost at 0630 hrs. 840 were counted from the car park as they were starting to go out as I was still coming down View Point Road this morning. Single Redwing is todays migrant. Single Purp was along the riverbank & Mrs Stonechat is still with us.
Glorious morning for adding a few moth species to the year list by looking at a few mines. Not the easiest thing in the world but Stigmella aurella is abundant enough with the flying adult being little more than a couple of millimetres long.
