Begging Rabbits scrounge carrots whilst the moth traps are being emptied but, what's more worrying is the fact that one finds oneself talking to them - although it would be even more worrying if they answered back !

Breezy dull morning. Southbound 2 Whimbrel, Curlew & Swift with northbound 2 Gannet, 2 Sandwich Tern & Swallow. On site it's baby bird time of the year.

Probably one of the poorest July nights on record with very few moths in the traps. Heart & Club was non-existent here last century but is presently one of the commonest species recorded.

Ringing: 4 Linnet, 3 House Sparrow, 2 Dunnock, 1 Goldfinch, 1 Great Tit.
