Considering the weather and my attention to the trap (4.30a.m. checks) very disappointing results. Usual suspects in small numbers, common quaker, hebrew character, emmelina monodactyla, clouded drab, but also first for the year in the forms of waved umber, white spotted pug, nut tree tussock, muslin moth and beautiful plume.
One night soon there will be moths in large numbers, just need a warm day and an overcast night. Now have a powerful head torch so plan to wander woods and lanes at night with moth net to catch them on the wing.
