A few days camping in North Norfolk and phone lines burnt out in Little Hadham following a power surge have meant no updates recently. Phones and broadband back on this afternoon after a week.
A white satin and square spotted clay have been added to the macro list for the year, whilst Donacaula forficella was a new moth for my parish records. Also, new for the year, the beautiful plume moth, Amblyptilia acanthadactyla, taking my annual totals to 175 macro species and 185 micro species: 360 moth species in total, with 4335 moths having been trapped this year already. Hoping to make 400 species and 5000 moths for the year.
Returning to Norfolk tomorrow morning, camping for the night at Stiffkey before spending Thursday birding and returning home Thursday evening. Hope to get out on to Stiffkey saltmarshes for a bit of netting with headtorch, too.
