Descrission:

Description: Garden catch pre-North winds On Sunday night I ran the garden trap again and I didn't do too bad at all, with 44 moths of 18 species present in the morning. Highlights were my second garden Dark Sword-grass, 5x Red-line Quaker's, and year firsts of Mallow and Red-green Carpet. The weather was warm and mild, but by the evening the sky had cleared and come the morning it was around 12 degrees (about what today has been during the day!)
