Lade

Lade - 0800hrs - cool, sunny, w2 - Many of yesterdays migrants seemed to have moved off during last nights clear skies as all I could find were a few Chiffs and the usual singing Cetti`s Warblers. Hundreds of Swallows were circling high above the lakes and a couple of Buzzards drifted over but not much else.
The moth trap had a distinctly end of season feel to it with Silver Ys and the first Autumnal Rustics and Feathered Ranunculus.
The Pectoral Sandpiper was reported from the bird reserve with Gropper and Common Redstart in the Trapping Area.
