Catch Report - 15/05/22 - Back Garden

Another outing in the garden, as it's been so warm during the daytime, even muggy at times.  

Sunday night it was warm, but again a little breezy (Although i'm starting to think it's because the garden is so open).

With a minimum of 12 degrees, but rain on and off through the night, the catch was supressed slightly.

Still, 3 species were added to the year list which was nice.

 

I also got my 5th Pinion-spotted Pug for the garden, and Leslie around the corner has now added it to his garden list, must be having a good year locally.

Still the nights look good, but with threats of thunderstorms at night now, will they transpire?

Moth garden list for 2022 stands at 192 species
