It started well and it got better with the temperature only dropping one degree in 6 hours....I won't waffle any more just look at the photos and the list(though it has to be said I failed to get any photos of a few a I got such bad photos of 3 micros they are impossible to ID so the list should be bigger but it was too hectic to keep up with everything). The Lime Hawk was very worn and looked a bit 'scary' because of it but the other 2 Hawks looked very fresh
The trap was out from 9:30pm till 3:15am

Yes Ian, record temperatures last night, 16c at 11pm for example here.
ReplyDeleteSo many Moths that they all came at once and as a result have not had time to get a final tally, upload pictures etc! yes I must have managed about 40 too, combining Garden and Woodland though!
Hi Ian,
ReplyDeleteYour Agonopterix looks like arenella to me. Check it on UK Moths.....

????? (Small Fan-foot)
??#1 Pug (Mottled Pug)
Hope that helps matey.
Ian - ???#2 micro is Argyresthia trifasciata
ReplyDeleteThanks guys....I avoided the micros/pugs last year so it's going to be a steep learning curve this year.
