More Visitors than Moths

Heysham
The final nestbox brood of young birds ringed today.  A fair season with successful broods of 4 Blue Tit and 9 Great Tit.
Wren - family party of parents and young - south end of  Landscape Strip.
Common Whitethroat - family party by east end of Nature Park.

Moth Trap
4 individuals only this morning were indicative of the cool clear night with easterly wind which deters moths from entering the hut trap.
