A brief effort at Pishiobury Park

On Saturday night I joined Colin, Graeme and Steve for a field trip at Pishiobury Park. 16 odd species were observed with individuals really struggling as the fog developed the sky cleared and the temperature plummeted, hands were getting chilly and we ended up packing up rather prematurely.

Best moth of the night for me were three Deep-brown Darts unexpectedly all in the MV trap that was put in the middle of the featureless and foggy field.
Pale Pinion was also nice to see that came to Colin's sheet.

Graeme and Steve have done extensive visits to this site this year and will continue to do so, the most important find so far is many individuals of Acleris sheperdana, hats off to them...if you put the time and effort in you reap the rewards.
