25 moths of 19 species this morning was better than of late with a few new ones for the year list including Lesser Yellow Underwing, Small Blood-vein, Large Tabby, and best of all my 2nd ever record of Caloptilia alchimiella which despite refridgeration etc. wouldn't co-operate with being photographed. Made a trip to Dunge and Rye yesterday. Didn't see very much. The Great White Egret was showing well on Dengemarsh and there was a Hobby there. At Rye harbour failed to get any Roseate Terns but the Common Terns were feeding young.
