Description

Farmland - Braughing Friars - Field Trip - 19/07/14

The Herts moth group assembled once more on their annual trip to a 10 acre site of Hertfordshire farmland that has been left in 2006 to grow wild. The vegetation was certainly dense and even encroaching over the roads that once had 40 tonne lorries driving up and down it every single day. Those days have long gone and 8 years down the line it is amazing how much nature has really taken a hold and used every inch of space to its full potential. It is really sad that this may be the last time we all get together and trap this site (I hope not) But with sad news comes good news, and boy did we go out in style. The list is still a work in progress with various moths with other people to be checked, I will compile my notes on the night of what we observed to the hanging sheet and all of the traps that we tried to empty carefully Carefully with two things in mind, the moths flying off and Hornets...of which we had quite a few!

The weather was absolutely perfect, warm overcast (most of the time) and humid with a faint southerly breeze at times and a minimum temperature reading on my car at 4am this morning of 18 degrees!

The moths...well where do we start. We could of had a field day with all the beetle species that were coming to the traps let alone the 1000’s of moths, yep that many I would predict.

Stars of the show were Kent Black Arches, Waved Black, Brown-veined Wainscot, Lesser-spotted Pinion and Olive.

The micros are now finally done and thanks to Colin Plant and Andy King for extra dissections from moths collected during the night, we seem to have a fair old whack of the Cnephasia species present on the farm for starters! We also got quite a few wetland species suggesting a lot of movement from other habitats.

Numbers are very approximate! Please do email me for any corrections and additions chaps.
