I repeated my customary circuit around Montpelier this morning, starting at Fairlawn Road where there were several
Orange-tip butterflies and a single
Common Earwig. I wandered down to the Station and saw more Orange-tips and en route there was a
Speckled Wood at Station Road.
Magpies,
House Sparrows and a singing
Blackcap were the ornithological highlights at the station.

A nice surprise in the flat this morning was a
Least Black Arches moth which is a 'first' for me. It and a
Twenty-plume Moth were obviously in the moth trap yesterday but had been hiding!
