Moth update
Sent from my iPhoneAt last, a few moths coming to the traps, with 4 Pale Brindled Beauty and 2 chestnut taken in Alder Wood. An Acleris species taken in the garden skinner was gen detted and proved to be Acleris ferrugana. The A heracliana was proved to be such, also through genitalia dissection.
The temperatures are now far more conducive to mothing, so fingers crossed for more good records this weekend.
