Warming up again this next few days, yesterday was lovely and warm and promised a good night Moth trapping, unfortunately clear skies kept the numbers lower than expected.
A few new for year's including a stunning Shoulder-striped Wainscot, only my second ever record.

Hi Ben,
ReplyDeleteThings must've been a bit cloudier up here in Derbyshire as I ahd my best night so far...75 moths of 35 species, many of which are covered by your list but also including my first Peach Blossom and Clouded Silver!
Cheers
