Nice to see two Stonechats at #WyverLaneNR today. No photo of the two Goldcrests who were hiding well and similarly failed with the Little Egret on the link channel before it flew off north. @willowglass12.bsky.social @belperbirder.bsky.social @richardttaylor.bsky.social @derbyswildlife.bsky.social

Moth trap yesterday. Dusky Thorn survived the overnight predation of the Hornet but a few Underwing didn't! @willowglass12.bsky.social @belperbirder.bsky.social #teammoths
