3:3 – with a pretty Black Redstart

The ringing:

Three new birds and three recaptures today. A female Black Redstart “Husrødstjert” was the last bird ringed today. Think it was the one jumping around in the garden yesterday but not flying in the nets. Now it did, let´s count that as a success for that slow morning.

Wildlife around Blåvand:

Today Marit and her mom went on a trip out of Blåvand. On their way back they had a great observation of a wulf “ulv” next to the road!

The moths:

Not many moths today but I had two new ones for me, Diacrisia sannio “Rødfrynset bjøn”  and Dioryctria simplicella “Fyrrekoglehalvmol”, the last of the two is not so common.
