Field Trip - Roughdown Common Again! - 21-06-16 On Tuesday night I was joined by David and Roger at Roughdown Common for our third visit to this site this year. I arrived on site quite early and planned to do some netting before setting all of the traps up. We had access to the reserve up a slight incline and because on Monday morning it rained solidly for most of the morning, it was a slippy upward slope that the car disagreed with! Spinning and slipping I managed to get up with just the engine power and no throttle (Diesels are great for this) I'm glad I got there early as I added 12 species in around 40 minutes of 'exercise' best moth was an Epinotia tenerana. I also got plagued by clegs as soon as I got out of the car, I thought sod this...so I got some of my citronella spray that I bought from Turkey about 8 years ago! I bought about 5 bottles back then and this is my last (full) bottle..the stuff worked instantly and I never aw another one afterwards. The traps were all set-up at around 9pm and lights on at 9.40pm, we ran a total of six lights across the site covering all different areas. The weather was just perfect, thick dominant cloud cover, little wind and 17 degrees. Things did get a little chillier at packing up time at 2am and the breeze kicked up a bit. 129 species was not to be sniffed at but we've done a lot better this time of year in the past.. echoing the continuation of a poor year. Best Moth was a Garden Dart, a really uncommon and terribly declining moth which use to be an annual moth on most people's records in the 1970's..now well this only my second record in 10 years and my first Hertfordshire record. Another moth of note was the micro moth Thiotricha subocellea, another rare moth for the County, two were recorded on the night, only my 2nd and 3rd records ever. All in all a pleasing night with the guys.
