WWT

Another trap full of wasps today, probably more than fifty and out numbering moths, a nuisance but they don't seem to be inflicting any casualties. A couple of Common Marbled Carpets were the first for many weeks and two Light Emeralds (one fresh, one much less so) were NfG 155 and  a Rush Veneer.

Later, at Arundel after catching up with a few people, the Osprey arrived and showed well although, sadly, the scrapes were being worked on which probably deterred it from fishing on site. Two Kingfishers at least and probably 250+ hirundines some in Arundel but most scattered to the north and west and very high.
