Still slow going

Very quiet on Wednesday night here, just 6 moths counted under conditions that didn't seem too bad, but I think it's the ever-niggling presence of the wind that is the main problem.

Still, it was nice to record the first Ruby Tiger of the year, a rather worn individuakl sadly, the wind probably blew its scales off!

Things picked up last night here and out, but I expect it to be slow for a few more weeks yet, as night time temperatures fall away.
