More excitement in the form of another new moth for the house list, and this one, a Dark Arches, is rather more photogenic. One of the young Green Woodpeckers finally sat in front of the camera; not brilliantly, but it does a neat levitation trick.
Yet more danger in the garden, as one of our many young House Sparrows became lunch for our female Sparrowhawk. If you’re upset by the sight of an animal suffering in the talons of another don’t look at the last picture, but what did you think Sparrowhawks eat, asparagus?
