Blooming Blåvandshuk

When I came back to Blåvand some days ago, I was surpised and amazed, how green it is now in Blåvand. The Scotch broom "Cytisus scoparius" is flowering yellow. Picture: Hanelie Sidhu

The ringing:

It was a slow morning today, just five new birds were ringed, the number of recaptures was higher, eight. My highlight was to ring a new Robin “Rødhals”, it is a while ago, that I had one in hand.

After closing, I saw two mating Sand Lizards “Markfirben” in the lighthouse garden.

The moths:

I only had three different moths species in the traps today. Actiontia polydon “Lilla perikonugle” was a new species for me.

In the afternoon, I went to the bog and found a caterpillar of Malacosoma castrensis “Redespinder”.
