@Alexander_Lees Well done to Nick! Incidentally, I found the first for Herts without getting out of bed.

Two more new moths for me last night! The garden moth list is now (nominally, provisionally) 499. @norfolkmoths

@MurrayOrchard @BTO_Cornwall @BirdTrack @CBWPS1 @_BTO Was a priority job for me on retirement. I found it really rewarding and enjoyed reliving some good times in my youth! Still managed a bit of actual birding alongside the inputting.

@CleyBirds The general answer is to post them to the Predatory Bird Monitoring Scheme, but that scheme is currently suspended due to avian flu. Not helpful now but may be to someone on another occasion.

Two special captures in the garden yesterday: a young female Kestrel ringed under licence for @_BTO and this lovely Clifden Nonpareil that came to the outside lights. @norfolkmoths

Barred Red - abundant across Britain but a new one for me today and another first record for TM18. From last night’s trap but I didn’t actually spot it until putting the trap away this evening. Lucky it stayed!

An amazing purple patch for mothing in the garden last week! None of these had previously been recorded in my home 10-km square.

Looks a bit worn, but is it identifiable to species, please? Mompha epilobiella seems a good fit. Thanks ⁦⁦⁦@MOTHIDUK

Extraordinary numbers of Little Egrets have been gathering at Dickleburgh Moor recently, as the water level continues to drop: 42 for me today, 58 last week, and I’m told >70 in late June.
