Guillemot calculations and Red Admiral report

Heysham Obs
Still a few problems with my eyes, especially staring through tanalised (tantalised?) fences.  Images of six Guillemot through three adjoining gaps in the fence, where previously there were three.  So there were two birds!

Harbour area
Great-crested Grebe - two (definitely!) in outer harbour
Med Gull - adult harbour mouth briefly
Guillemot - two together by waterfall

Middleton
Tufted Duck - 11 model boat pond

Butterfly
Report of a Red Admiral (correctly described not dogwalker-speak for small tortoiseshell) down the dog track this morning (Brown House Moth in moth trap)

Saturday

One winter moth in trap!
