Garden Trapping - Fordham - Cambridgeshire - 28/08/21

The second night running the trap in our new garden and it was still a very good catch and also quite a cold one with temperatures under clear skies falling away to 9c, it was cloudy by the morning and there were a further 13 new species added to the garden tally.

Best was a lovely fresh Lychnis and a Monochroa species to check.
