The Garden Moth Trap - Wednesday night - A load of Scallops!

Back to trapping after quite a few too many nights off! great to be back and see some more Moths, species list was good and included a garden first Brown Scallop, a pretty non-descript Moth to say the least and one I saw for the first time last week on Canvey Island.
The weather has finally turned after 3 weeks of baking weather and hardly any rain, we are back to good old blighty, wind, shower's and clear skies at night again!
