Whetstone, Leics.

In my last post I mentioned that despite an upturn it still felt a long way from the July numbers we would normally hope for. That changed last night with a faily mega total - 433 of 115sp (after detting the dagger and minor aggregates). 50 species added since last Saturday taking me up to 270, with the last being a Cinnabar fluttering through the garden today. Nothing new for the garden in those additions, but a few garden goodies including 2nd records of Ethmia dodecea (3rd Leics. record) and Heart and Club, first Blue-bordered Carpet since 2006, first Sycamore since 2009, first Varied Coronet and Small Angle Shades since 2010, and a couple of now-expected Small Ranunculus. Here's hoping for more tonight.
