21-24/8/09 in the garden

It's all gone a bit quiet in my Barnehurst garden, and I haven't had time to roam the streets for a few days.

The Wood Mouse was seen in the compost bins on the 21st.

On the 22nd there was a Red Admiral in the garden (numbers are reported to be down on previous years), and 4 Small Whites feeding on Lavender round in Barnehurst Avenue.

August 23rd saw this second generation Snout moth at the window after dark:


On the 24th there were two Silver Y moths.

It's now been 2 or 3 days since any Gatekeepers were seen in the garden, though there is still a modicum of Speckled Wood action.
