Catch Report - 17/05/12 - Back Garden/Farmland

Another good night following on from last night with a few more new ones including Brimstone Moth, Silver-Y, Common Pug and Lunar Marbled Brown.
Strangely there were no Micro moths present at all. Really pleased to be seeing Hawk-moths again, and it shouldn't be long before Eyed appears in the trap. 
A minimum of 8-9c again last night, I shall be having a break over the weekend and then back to trapping monday/possibly sunday.
