At the pond three Emperors hawking at various points, a couple of Comma, one Swift overhead and a Swallow skimming the water. The swans have lost another cygnet and now down to two.

Penultimate day..
... and no change in weather so still minimal moth catch. Was rather hoping for some of yesterday's water beetles for macro practice but the only non moths were this tiny caddis and this froghopper. Even with cooling, moth specimens were too fired up to hang around; even the usually placid Lackeys were off like a shot. Two Flame were, oddly, NfG/T and this LYU sat still just long enough whilst the Browntail was the only 'quiet' moth.Three Swifts 'screamed' overhead.
