Another pretty unremarkable night on Monday. Species and numbers are more akin to late April.
3 new species for the year were recorded and were as follows....
Buff Arches - A far from common moth here in my garden, with just two records in 2022 and none last year, a real treat to see and an unmistakeable looking moth.
Common Rustic - Ubiquitous in my garden and for most others I suspect, darker individuals will be checked for Lesser Common Rustic.
Dingy Shears - Rare here, a moth that i've only ever seen once before last year. A fairly drab and worn example this time.
The weather continues to be windy and cool unfortunately (I wrote the same in my last post)
Moth garden list for 2024 stands at 428 species
