20th May
Bird migration was slow today with just 2 Swallows through. The wind started as a light NNW swinging and picking up slightly to a westerly. Cloudbase ranging from 500M to 600M 8/8 giving a slightly muggy feel to the day ideal for looking for day flying moths. Recorded today were: Many Nettle-tap along the coast road, Elachista rufocinerea, Incurvaria masculella, Stigmella aurella, Aspylapterix tringipennella, Dichrorampha acuminatana and Red Twin-spot Carpet. Larvae found were Scarlet Tiger on Nettle and Oak Eggar on Rosa rugosa.
