Tried trapping twice this week, both times the wind seemed to pick up at dusk probably reducing the expected low numbers caught to even lower than I would have thought. Quite a few empty egg trays (apart from chafers, they still seem to be around in reasonable numbers!). Still, nice to pick up a few more first for the year: Syndemis musculana, Scoparia ambigualis, Brown rustic, Shears, Light brocade, Peppered, Lime hawk, Seraphim, Spectacle, Buff tip, Flame carpet and Marbled brown. Caught a worn Clouded drab too last night, so the odd Orthosia is still hanging on. 15sp on the 29th (one trap), followed by 24sp last night (2 traps).
