Brenda writes: “Today it was good to take stock of the flowers as I went round the parishes refreshing the noticeboards. There was nothing new until I was leaving Wighton and noticed a patch of vervain.

In the moth trap there was lots of variety and one new moth which, pending James’ verification, I think is a fen wainscot.”

Moths: fen wainscot
Flowers: vervain
