Migrants

Over the last few days a few migrants have been in evidence - three Chiffs and a singing Willow Warbler (with a Grey Wagtail) at Binscarth; a Swallow at Howaback; a Whimbrel, two Ruff and a pile of Pintail at The Shunan.

Queen bumblebees (probably B. hortorum) have been frequent in the garden, a Hebrew Character was in last night's moth trap.

I've been busily counting rooks, more info here... https://aparliamentofrooks.wordpress.com/
