145/29 is a good night for our garden in VC37. Lots of nfy including Lynchis, Short cloaked Moth, Udea olivalis, Beautiful hook-tip and most interesting Maple Snout (Anarsia innoxiella) - quite uncommon in Worcs I think #teammoth
93/20 this morning with no losses to the Robin thugs thanks to keeping everything in the box where the buggers can‘t at the moths. The LYU explosion has started being most numerous followed by Dark Arches. H&D dropping off. Dwarf Cream Wave & Grey Pug nf the garden. Nfy Flame & Uncertain #teammoth

This weekend, UK birdwatchers will be counting Wetland Birds for @btobirds.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social @jncc.bsky.social.
With most waders away, breeding, this is a great opportunity to count non-breeding 'teenagers'.
Why are they important?
