Two new Micro's for the garden The trap went on again last night as it was just so tempting to try again after a scorcher of a day with temps of 23 degrees late afternoon. Again the sky cleared after being cloudy most of the day (much to a Moth'ers frustration!) The low moon was a bonus though and come this morning at 6am it was kind of 'find the moth' and lots of egg trays had nothing but flies on, but there were a few good ones nestled within the confines of my trap.
Two Eulia ministrana were lovely to see, having never recorded them previously in a garden, the books say that they are generally confined to thick wooded areas, I guess they are feeding from the mature Oaks on the Bridleway.
Rhyacionia pinivorana was also new for the garden.
With Pale Tussock alighting on the window sill and Nutmeg clinging on to the rainshield.....the rest were the usual species that I would expect annually and all sitting in the comfy trap.
All in all a very pleasing night.
