Spring really is here - very mild. Unfortunately no moths in the trap as it was strewn over the ground when I got in - strong winds yesterday. However friend Andy and I visited Phase 3/Home Farm where we had a Ring Ouzel (first record for Keele, 2 Wheatears, Blackcap, Chiffchaff, Swallow, Buzzard, and Meadow Pipit. Best days birding for some time at Keele!
