Pretty Good Weekend So Far...

Study leave has been better than expected, and on the evenings when I haven't been out celebrating the end of school, I've been moth trapping for most of the night- like any normal teenager! ;-)

The weather hasn't been brilliant for moths in terms of no cloud cover... but the wind is low and the temperatures are high so I've been getting quite a few moths in the trap...

1 Light Brocade- Best moth so far this year

1 White Ermine- NFY

1 Maiden's Blush- NFY

1 Pale Tussock

2 Pale Mottled Willow

2 Brimstone

1 Shuttle-shaped Dart

In the way of Micro moths...

1 Bee Moth Aphomia sociella

5 Light Brown Apple Moth Epiphyas postvittana

1 Diurnea fagella

3 Pyrausta aurata- Swept from mint during the day

1 Crambus perlella- Disturbed on lawn

Light Brocade...

Maiden's Blush...

Pale Tussock...

White Ermine...

Brimstone...

And my personal favourite micro- Pyrausta aurata

I won't be waking up to any school tomorrow so it will be another night of moth trapping!
