More Rain was most appreciated by the botany. A Serin was here for c.15 minutes mid-morning. Also of note a Reed Bunting as we only have eight previous records for the month of May. Other migrants were 8 Wheatear and a small handful of new Lesser Whitethroats, Whitethroats & Willow Warblers. 2 Redshank came out of the river then north and 4 Swallow went south.
With a milder calm night over 250 moths of 40 species (including 166 Shuttle-shaped Dart) including this Poplar Lutestring which is a species only noted here on half a dozen previous occasions.
Ringing: 2 Willow Warbler, 1 Lesser Whitethroat, 1 Linnet, 4 Wheatear, 1 Whitethroat.
