Two females in trap this morning. I perched them on a tussock of Thrift on a bank. Early this afternoon one of them had a gentleman caller. I came back when she had QUITE finished. She is now in an old aquarium rescued from the recycling place. She is sitting on a bunch of green heather shoots. I don't know how long the process takes, but I'll be looking for eggs every day (with the next consignment of grandchildren).

Up your neck of the woods today and yesterday, enjoyed watching all the house martins collecting mud from the pools in the road at Ceibwr. Also quite a few orange tip butterflies and wagtails around the stream running down to the beach.
