A morning looking for HBs again  this time in cool cloudy and windy conditions produced 20+ Red Kites, 12+ Buzzards, three Kestrels, ten Ravens and two House Martin's. Sadly, a call from gorse was brief and not repeated but sounded more like Dartford Warbler than any other Sylvia.

At home mothing was poor but a first; a day when Garden Carpets outnumbered Jerseys 5:2. 

Agriphila tristella, the weevil Curculio glandium (probably), Hofmanophila pseudospretella and a Phycitodes spp saxicola/maritima.

And a poor session at TH, mostly bitching about continued closures with the usual suspects produced nil other than this female Volucella inanis. Even the good numbers of Common Terns had evaporated!!
