Highlight of the day was getting the plot pond dug out with the help of a local excavator and contractor. We also managed to do the hay cut on the meadow and need to do a few hours work tomorrow to strim the vineyard.
Still a few Red-breasted Flycatchers around but certainly not as many as when we first arrived
Roe Deers at dusk
A couple of distinctive moths (above and below) that will have to wait until I get back to identify (although Obsidentify suggests Epilecta linogrisea for the one above and the bottom one looks like a Ruddy Carpet). Also had 8 Convolvulus Hawkmoth feeding on the nicotiana along the road to Tango this evening

After the hay cut
The pond ! Can't wait to get this finished. We've had delays from the local water company in getting water to the site so will need to finish this off next year
