I’ve been plugging away this past week or so with the actinic in the vain hope of adding Convolvulus Hawk or Vestal to the garden list. Sadly for me, both species remain as elusive as ever but I did have a suprise amongst an otherwise meagre selection of moths this morning when I turned over an egg carton to reveal a female Bulrush Wainscot. Still no Merv’ du Jour yet but it can only be a matter of days now.

I’ve also been trapping a few times recently in the hope something of interest would come in but to no avail. Not had any migrants of any description. Averaging between 15-20sp a night from 125w MV plus sometimes the addition of the twin 30w. Around 50-60 moths trapped in total. First Blair’s shoulder knot, Pink-barred sallow and Yellow-line quaker for the year all noted in last few days.
