Chilly!

So cold, with a brisk north wind and temperatures dipping below 10 degrees, there were just 11 moths to the trap ran over night.
I had an early night after a busy day as I knew it wouldn't be worth staying up late.

Luckily, amongst the 8 species were 2 new micro moths for the year.

I don't have to wait too long for a better night, tonight looks much better.
