Friday 11th August 2017

Warm and sunny most of the day.
Four days now since I saw a dragonfly emerge from the pond. Probably peaked now which means over forty southern hawkers emerged from the pond this summer. What a result.
Despite ideal conditions very few moths in the trap last night, most had been recorded previously.
Still unable to tell where the hedgehog enters the food store, looks healthy. I must suround the store with cameras, still not done this yet.
Bad news was the sighting of a rat in the store. May have to set a cage trap as can't afford for the hedgehog to eat poison.
               Most of the day spent catching up with John and Hilly, a good dinner at the Pack Horse lunch time.
