Another year lister

A quiet evening at the trap, with a small waved umber being the only new moth for the year. Dot moth, cabbage moth, elephant hawk and regulars were present, but less than 50 macro moths in total. Plenty of wasps, though. Maybe having the trap under a plum tree is not the best place! Now have a new, portable generator so shall be out and about in local woods after a brief trip to The Camargue next week. Flying to Nimes early Tuesday morning, returning Friday afternoon. Hoping for some decent shots of short toed eagle, hoopoe, few warblers, black crowned night heron and hope to track down slender billed gull, gull billed tern and may even be an audouins gull, one of the rarest gulls in Europe..
