Another unsettled days saw an obvious reduction in bird and other wildlife observations. Despite this, 4 more curlew flew south, along with a single swift and swallow. The turnstones were still on the jetty and most of the regular species were about but keeping their heads down. A very brief sunny interlude saw a few butterflies added to the day total, and a notable bird sighting was a male sparrowhawk carrying a small rodent as prey, not a common sighting, though in Landguard's past, a female was known to have caught an adult rat, showing they're not just restricted to avian prey.
With the awful moth weather of the last few days, Common Footman are one of the few species coming to the trap.
