11th June 2014

Weather: W 3, backing NE 1, 4/8 cloud, excellent vis

74 Gannets were loafing and diving off the North End and 90 Common Terns were counted.  Three Little Egrets graced the islands with their presence.

Insects were high on the agenda today with Small White, Green-veined White and Red Admiral noted but the highlights of the day were two Hummingbird Hawk Moths feeding on the Valerian above Niffy Bay and a single Wasp Beetle in the Obs garden.
