Returned to Harlow Museum Gardens last night and set up two traps to run all night through until 4am.
Once again I was plagued by wasps, some still veryu active around he bulb, so I carefully inspected the catch.
Nothing groudbreaking, but a few new species for the year, highlights were a single Acleris cristana and only my 3rd ever Pammene aurita.
The weather was mild but did clear during the early hours of the morning.
