Milder night last night so chanced the #moth box. Still early in the year so very few species / numbers yet (roll on May/June). More Common Quakers (x4) & Early Grey (x1). Also first sighting in 2025 of Oak Beauty and Small Quaker. Moths on my finger today are...
1) Oak Beauty (top left)
2) Small Quaker (top right)
3) Common Quaker (BL)
4) Early Grey (BR)

Update on the eagle I did surgery on a couple weeks ago: Wing and foot are being used now a bit and all the pieces are staying put! Good range of motion on the wrist so good chance of returning to flight.

I haven’t caught a trout from this spot for quite some time, but I know they’re there, which motivates me to keep trying
I like this area. Popular with dog walkers, so not ideal for fishing
