Disappointing…

Cool weather has meant I’ve not run traps for a while, but as there appeared to be a very slight improvement last night I gave it a go with 2 lights in the wooded area around the work-sheds. 10sp seen, with the only moth of some interest being Frosted green (5 trapped). No improvement in the weather forecast with more cold nights to come over the weekend. A bit different from last April!

    Yes Neil, a very frustrating month so far and not looking good. I tried woodland on Tuesday evening and very little came to the trap, nothing new for the year. I still havn’t seen Frosted Green, Pine Beauty, Purple Thorn or Streamer in spite of trapping areas where I have usually seen them several times by this time in April. Very different from last year!

    Ran the actinic in the garden last night (13th) and then wondered why I’d bothered when I went out this morning to check. Just two Hebrew Characters and an Early Grey resting on the shed door nearby.
