Recorded 28 species last night (6th July), the highlight being a Large Tabby (Aglossa pinguinalis) – a new site record. It’s also only the second time that I’ve seen this moth, the first being twelve years ago! Lilac Beauty and Short-cloaked Moth were the best of the rest.
Overnight 4th July, I recorded 41 species. Highlights were Privet Hawk, Swallowtail Moth, Lychnis, White-point and Barred Yellow. Despite this being one of my best nights of the year species number wise, I’m inclined to agree with Neil that actual numbers are down … and I don’t catch that much anyway.
