Also in the moth trap were six Hebrew Characters, two Early Greys, two Common Quakers, a Light Brown Apple Moth and a Common Plume.
I took my daily well-being walk on the farm fields at the southern end of the Obs recording area, and it was most certainly dreich! In fact, pre-dawn I was a bit excited about the dreich conditions, as I hoped that they might have dropped in a migrant or two, but no.
I only had a quick look on the sea, because it was so dreich that you couldn't really see anything. So, I was actually amazed that I managed to record four Eiders!
Vis was virtually non-existent with just 15 Meadow Pipits, twelve Linnets, an Alba Wagtail and more interesting, two Tree Pipits.
I didn't have any grounded migrants apart from a single Willow Warbler!
Ah well, I'll just have to keep looking skywards in the garden in the hope of a decent raptor over!
