Butterflies were also in abundance with sightings of Comma, Peacock, Small Tortioseshell, Red Admiral, Large White, Small White, Orange-tip and the first for the year of Common Blue and Holly Blue.
Back to the Moths found, Grapholita jungiella was the most abundant with no less than 15 examples netted, potted and identified.
I hope to return on another sunny day and hopefully discover some new species for the site.
