Viper's Bugloss is stunning at the moment.
Hoopoe for a couple of hours this morning was unexpected before it flew across the River Orwell to Dovercourt. A female Eider was offshore before drifting out to sea when it went into the current in the shipping lane which carried it out. Cuckoo again this morning is presumably a loiterer. 4 Coal Tit continues the excellent run of dispersing juveniles passing through this summer.
Eucosma conterminana has only been noted previously in 2008.
Ringing: 4 Blue Tit, 4 Great Tit, 3 Linnet, 1 Coal Tit, 1 Dunnock, 1 Goldfinch, 1 House Sparrow, 1 Starling, 1 Whitethroat, 1 Wood Pigeon, 1 Wren.
