Ural owl is a top bird, my fav Euro owl. Would love to see one again. Bialowieza is a superb ancient forest and we had great views of Pygmy Owl, Hazel Grouse, Nutcracker, Les Spot Eagle and Thrush Nightingale. Lake Siemianowka is another hot spot, really good for warblers, waders, terns and raptors.

Missed the pecker in both Poland and Belarus. Had Three-toed in the Bialowieza, cracking bird. Steller's would be very nice.

Very nice! There are a few 'needed' ones on there for my euro list as well, especially White-backed pecker - a proper bogey species for me!

Cheers Tony.

Cheers Dan. Whereabouts are you going?

Cheers Steve.

Very nice mate.

Also 2 Common Quaker, Pale Brindled Beauty, March Moth, Agonopterix h/c 2. #TeamMoth

Dotted Border (Agriopis marginaria). NFY.

A Dotted Border that was new for the year last night. I was expecting a good number of #moths because of the temperature of 11°C and the lack of wind, but that didn't happen. 🙄 #teammoth

Always liked the markings on these.

Very nice, Steve.

Just 5 moths in and around the trap this morning, including two nicely contrasting Oak Beauty.
Hebrew Character NFY.
