Some great new additions to the farm species lists! Gert had an amazing encounter with a female Marsh Harrier this week. She was quartering one of the fields on the farm and then flew south west. A rare bird for Worcestershire.
Also recorded this week by Gert, 25 moth species, one of which was the Vestal moth which is an immigrant moth from southern Europe and also rare. Apparently, the southerly winds and heatwaves have brought a lot of migrant moth species to the UK this summer.
