Another bumper haul, and 3 new for year species including Early Thorn (found feeding from Sallow) a slightly tatty Red Chestnut and 2 forms of the micro Diurnea fagella
It was to be a mild night with lots of cloud cover but about 10pm the clear skies came into force and it turned chilly, still..the egg boxes were heaving on both sides and more were recorded than the previous night.

Nice catch Ben!
ReplyDeleteEaspecially the Red Chestnut, they seem to be very rare in these parts.
By the way, there seems to be a problem for me in accessing the rest of your blog. I can't roll the blog down passed your latest posting- I tried other blogs and it seems to be working. I don't know whether it's your blog or my aging computer!
All the best,
Matt
Hi Matt
ReplyDeleteCheers!
O dear i'm not sure what is up with it, it works on my computer (then again it probably would as its the pc I use to edit it on)
What browser are you using?
I'm using firefox.
I'm aware that the top picture does not work on Internet Explorer.
Hi Ben,
ReplyDeleteYeah I'm using explorer on Windows XP. You're right, I can't see the top picture but used to be able to scroll down your blog- now I can't even do that!
The scroll ber lets me get no further than your latest post.
I'm no expert, so don't know how to solve this problem........
