Bovingdon Brickworks - Hemel Hempstead - Field Trip - 11/07/14 We went back to Bovingdon Brickworks on Friday in search of the Garden Tigers we found last year at around this time. Also seeing other people catching them up and down the Country last week spurred me on to go all out with 5 traps and cover as much area as we could. Using over 200 metres of cable the traps were spread out in a delta shape from the car park. The night started warm and muggy and once again I was plagued with horse-flies and proceeded to sit in the car until it got dark enough to avoid them! Once dark the full moon was very bright but luckily we had imminent cloud cover and by around 10pm the moon was completely obscured. It was quite a damp night though with a spooky mist surrounding each trap. Best moth of the night was a Tiger (We didn't get any Garden Tiger's unfortunately) a rare one for the County, a Scarlet Tiger and about the 7th record for Hertfordshire. It could possibly be a wanderer as there seems to be a lot of migrant and wandering activity across the County at present which is great news for us moth'ers! Other good Macro moths included plenty of Ruby Tigers, Millers, Bordered Sallows, Barred Hook-tip, and 8 Coronets. On the Micro moth front the best was probably Spilonota laricana, which was taken home to double-check, as Spilonota ocellana is very similiar and was much more common on the night. Two plumes are still to check. The the odd looking Double Square-spot turned out to be just that. There were literally hundreds of Chrysoteuchia culmella's and Eucosma hohenwartiana's coming to all of the traps, both easily numbering 300+ Lots and lots of Knapweed as far as the eye could see. All be ready for a predicted heat wave next week, traps at the ready!
