That Time of Year

Still predictably VERY quiet on the "feathered front", the only notable action being a decent number of Gannets fishing close offshore on occasions.

This morning I opened the front door to find THREE of these feeding some three feet away...

Hummingbird Hawk Moths I believe. Have to admit I'm "Strictly for the Birds" but these are quite something! No award winners but you get the idea. They were present on and off all morning.

Hoping things liven up soon...
