Gade Springs - Hemel Hempstead - 13/10/12

Well I chanced a session at a Nature Reserve some 50 minutes away from where I live hoping for some good moths.
All hopes were dashed when after setting up 4 traps, the rain started to fall. Even worse was that it then cleared and dropped to 4c at packing up time!

Just 6 moths to the traps, what a disaster.

O well I have had it good this year, it was only a matter of time!
