Normandy, Le Haute de Croute

Started this year's French trip with a short stay with our friends Charles and Anna.  Moths trapped overnight in their splendid garden, more like a small nature reserve really.
 
Nice to see Spotted Flycatcher and Turtle Doves doing well as they are now sadly very scarce back home.
