Cold night for moths.

Set the trap on open grassland tonight, next to mature ash and oak as well as a selection of younger trees. Having been sunny and warm all day meant the temperature was 10C when I set the trap at 6 but lack of cloud cover meant by 9pm it was 3C and dropping. I returned to empty earlier than usual as had a good wine to drink and was too lazy to walk later. Pleasing to find clouded drab and March moth. Another potentially good summer site. Clouded drab shown above.
