22:45 Cigarette break on the Obs front step from writing the blog and a Bittern has just flown south right overhead calling really loudly - fantastic!

Despite looking prime for pale, interesting and rare oenanthe, the sandy beaches of Portland Harbour north shore were devoid of such delight! 2 Sandwich Tern fishing, Sparrowhawk in off from the island and a Black Redstart along Khartoum Road

Tens of thousands of these flies currently moving westward along the underbarn Portland Harbour, quite extraordinary!

Really big influx of common migrant moths at the Obs last night incl 129 Rush Veneer, 93 Rusty-dot Pearl and 78 SY (+another 19 at the ORI lure); a Red-headed Chestnut best of the rares.
