Home Time

Photos now added to two previous posts

 Thursday October 15

Three new moths for the trip amongst the 42 of 13 species trapped overnight. Feathered Ranunculus is the first we have ever trapped ourselves. Not the best photo, the only one possible.

 


A total of 26 species trapped at our cottage, when it rained every night, and there was a northerly wind for most of the week. 

After doing all the Covid required stripping and bagging required, moth trap emptying, and car packing - the latter down a narrow path through sodden flowers - it was 11.46 before we left. It was so tempting to drive to Beachy Head again for the Lammergeier, it would have been too much. It was a horrid drive through coastal conurbations.

No traffic problems on the journey home, buying my daily papers became one. The first garage/shop didn't even stock them, a big surprise.

Always good to be home, however good the trip.
