nickpicozzi.bsky.social @nickpicozzi.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Two Hummingbird hawk-moths hovering at a flowering Buddleia shrub in the sun, chasing, 17.45 bst, flew off, one returned very briefly. Female House sparrow seemed interested. With a Holly blue this morning seen well and almost certain one flew through in the afternoon, a good start for the BC watch! 010
