Trapping in my
garden again on Friday night yielded a modest catch of 14 moths comprising of
11 species, a modest catch for some but not too bad for my garden this time of
year.
Of the 11
species present, 4 were new for the year list.
The weather
continues to be warm and favourable with highs at around 20 degrees and despite
some clear spells at night, temperatures are holding up at around 10-12c.
