Hi Earthdragon,
If you want to add to the reference section e.g. Moths. Click on "reference" at the top of the page. When there, look down the list in blue on the left of the page under your user name. Click "Moths" and away you go.

Yes, on mid summers eve it only took seven years to get around to it.

I have the list from Pat and have in the last couple of days been annotating it with named locations and looking at the squares with few or no records. I did do a bit of guddling today in one of them but tis a bit early i fear only got a very small four spot. Saw fifty or more large reds yesterday and James has said there has been lots of them at his work (he got my first record of the year before the rains - if that makes any sense). I will look at my diary and get in touch with Peter and see what we can arrange. B.

Yeah i can't manage June either on account of a hen night a honeymoon and a wedding! (not neccesarilly in that order) so was thinking July - and it would be a weekend, can avertise it on the BD website. Will look at my diary and suggest dates, any sites you would like to visit in new squares?

Glad - delighted in fact to hear you're on the mend - I did begin to wonder if you had succombed for good! LOL! Just been to the caravan, taking my friend Joan for a short break as well as myself - got there at teatime but we packed a lot in to a few hours and she enjoys watching our big bird table which is supporting 5 pairs of bullfinch at the min!
Not much sleep last night - a combination of mothing, then rain - which resulted in a dash outside to bring trap in, then leg cramps (from eating chocolate and ice cream - boy did we misbehave after the fish and chip supper - I went hunting the shelves at Spar and packets and boxes of sweeties, choc and ice cream lept off the shelves..........)!!!!! I won't admit it Ian when he gets in from work tonight - he would throttle me!!!

Thinking if getting a meet set up for the summer over here, record a new square for the atlas, would you guys be up for it? I would be doing it as Jonathan has his hands pretty full this summer. Do you have Peter Elfords contact details by any chance

Really sorry to hear about the tonsilitis - there's a lot of it about at the min - I hope it misses me tho as I had a chest infection from Nov to Feb which resulted in strained muscles in my chest from coughing - the pain has only just died away from that - it was particularly upsetting on the left side of my rib cage as I had a fall at work and crcked a rib on the right side which has taken months to settle - lifes a pain I find for someone as clumsy and virus-prone as me!!!! Anyway hope you are out this morning enjoying that fantastic area you live in - goodness if I lived in Aviemore I;d never be in!!! And I'd have found a capercaillie by now - or that would be one of my wish list items ticked!!! I keep hoping every year that one will walk out onto the path and accost me - oh heaven!!!

All the best for the festive season mate.
