Garden Trap 05-03-13 - Stevenage, Hertfordshire

A few more milder days and I decided to set the trap up last night. With a maximum of 16c at 3pm and then at about 9pm the temperature was still holding up at around 9c it looked great conditions for some moths to venture out.
Indeed they did, with 13 moths of 8 different species, mostly found in the trap.

New for the garden was Dotted Border, Hebrew Character and Agonopterix heracliana/ciliella.
