Description:

Description: Catch Report 19th of May On Thursday night I ran the trap again and continued the catch up with 5 new species for the year. It is finally nice to see a bit of variety turning up..nothing rare but moths any moths was all I needed to see having missed out on so much lately. Best moth of note was a different form of Oak Nycteoline, my second of this species for the year. The weather has turned a little unsettled with rain showers and highs of 18 degrees but continuing to stay mild and cloudy for the evenings which are better for moths.
