Summary

[edit]
Description

Slim pickings even in suitable habitat

Possibly the warmest night of the year last night, and just 4 moths to my garden 125w MV trap, pretty dire and nothing to get excited about, 2 each of March Moth & Common Quaker.

Further afield I ran three traps where I work at a Cressbeds. Being surrounded by water it does get rather chilly at times, even during clear Summer evenings.

The night had been mild, but far too windy and with a deluge happening at some point during the night, this really did hamper the catch.

Below are my results.

Pick of the bunch was a nice fresh Early Thorn.

Also, a single caddis was in my MV trap, I can't recall ever recording one this early before, I am unsure of the species so any help appreciated.

Next Tuesday I will hopefully get in the 'warmer' woods and try again.
