11th June
Dry
but overcast through the day with a brisk and increasing NW moving into the N
wind; bird highlights included a Great-northern Diver, 9 Manx Shearwaters and
406 Puffins past the Lighthouse in an hour first thing, a Heron, a Corncrake which gave a brief snatch of song at Brides
(possibly a new bird) and 18 Knot. Also
of note were our first three Painted Ladies of the year.
This White Ermine was the only moth in the trap this morning and I can't find any previous records for the island!
