I put the moth trap out last
night, which was the first time in two weeks due to poor weather and commitment
as a volunteer at Birdfair. It wasn’t an
ideal night but I trapped and identified fifty-two moths covering fifteen
species, none of which were new for the year.
The following were recorded:
Orange Swift [2]; Light Brown Apple Moth [6]; Garden Rose Tortrix [1];
Agriphila tristella [3]; Agriphila straminella [3]; Agriphila geniculea [3];
Brimstone Moth [1]; Dusky Thorn [2]; Willow Beauty [2]; Flounced Rustic [7];
Common Rustic species [1]; Large Yellow Underwing [15]; Lesser Yellow Underwing
[5]; Square-spot Rustic [1] and Setaceous Hebrew Character [1].
