A different angle on things..

Unlike yesterday, early this morning was gloriously dry, still and sunny - a pleasure to be up despite the early hour - and no sound of traffic. Sadly not much bird song. Not sure whether the Med Gulls are taking a different route inland this year but they don't seem to be overflying the garden much and I've not heard GSW, Nuthatch nor Goldcrest which were prominent most mornings last year. (Later 5 Meds circled silently overhead whilst loading the car).

Still small numbers of moths but only one interloper today, a May Bug, and some nice looking moths with Buff Tip and Angle Shades new for the year and Great Prominent (NfG) plus  two Knot Grass and a different Peppered Moth to yesterday's individuals.
