Well with the help of David and Ginny Ayling, Mike Ridge and I made it to Parsonage Farm, Hawkridge. The Owner Bob is running a B&B and the farm and promoting Wildlife. He and his wife treated us royaly with bottles of wine to oust the exmoor flies and midges. They died in the wine with added flavour. Anyway it a fantastic wooded valley around the steep sloping fields. What a night 113 species with dark spectacle, beautiful snout waved carpet, even an olive(needs to be confirmed) and loads more
