Here are some observations of Emigrant butterfly migration that I made this season:

23 Oct: Canara Bank Layout, Lemon Emigrants, N-to-S.
20 Oct: Arsikere, Lemon Emigrants, NE-to-SW
28 Oct: near Kolar, Lemon Emigrants, NE-SW movement (Photo and Video)
1 Nov: Canara Bank Layout, Lemon Emigrants, North-South movement (Have video)
3 Nov; Bellary rd, Decathlon. Lemon Emigrants, Have Video. North-south movement. Some "blue" tigers too

This is a placeholder for a longer journal entry. Need to add in photos and video.

I searched for moths along the lit corridors and windows of NCBS (Bangalore) for half an hour (2130 to 2200) on 25 July 2019. It has been drizzling, and I was convinced that there would be lots of moths to photograph for National Moth Week. But instead, I was able to find, during a half-hour search, only THREE individual moths -- photos attached here. It wasn't just moths: in general there were no insects about. I saw perhaps 5-10 in total.

I wonder whether this was an anomalous night, and will check again on another night, but it's greatly worrying..

Looking forward to seeing everyone in Mysuru soon. And to compare notes on iNat and biodiversity documentation!
