It's quite astonishing how just a few extra degrees on the thermometer can make such a huge difference to a nights trapping!, it stayed at 10c till well after midnight and had only dropped to 7c by the time I got the trap in. The night started with Pugs again but by 9:30 every time I went out to look I found another new species for my garden starting with a Waved Umber which was quickly followed by a Pine Beauty then a Purple Thorn then something I haven't managed to positively ID yet(Pale Tussock!). In amongst all the Pugs in the trap I found 2 of what I think is a Foxglove Pug along with another Pug which is another new one for my garden(Common Pug). A good amount of new species as well as some familiar faces which included the first Shuttle Shaped Dart of the year.

The trap was out from 8:35pm till 3:30am
