Five Swift flew through.
Moths
The moth trap held 913 moths of 88 species – the best catch of the year so far. Rose Tortrix, Croesia holimana, Epiblema roborana, Udea Prunalis, Single-dotted Wave and Antler Moth were all new for the year. Late news concerns the discovery of small numbers of the day-flying Burnet Companion – yet another new species for the island.
