Following on from Keith’s record of Angle shades, I caught one last night (30th), my earliest ever record of an adult. Not much else to report, low numbers of the usual common species.

I had high hopes for Friday with increased cloud during the day. So I set the traps up at one of my regular sites and the skies immediately cleared! In 2 and half hours I trapped over 200 moths of 12 spesies, the bulk of which were Small Quaker (152). Only new for year was E. subpurpurella.
