Really nice to trap this gorgeous Brindled Green after last week's Sombre Brocade. I'm pretty sure this is the first one I've had in Exmouth but it's by no means a rare species. Other species trapped last night included 5 L-album Wainscot and Pale Mottled Willow.
Stonechat, half a dozen Chiffchaff, c30/40+ Meadow Pipit, 1+ Yellow Wagtail and a Golden Plover on Orcombe Point late this afternoon. The somewhat diminished Swallow flock numbered c20+ birds.
Yesterday on Orcombe - Golden Plover, c50/100+ Meadow Pipit, a small number of Yellow Wagtail, c50+ Swallow, 14 Starling, 2+ House Martin and at least one Sand Martin.
Large Ranunculus
Turnip Moth
Nice to see this beautiful Golden Plover on Orcombe Point this afternoon.
A couple of lovely moths there!
