I had the trap on for a couple of hours last night while our daughter was out at a gig (and therefore a late night).
I watched lots of moths flying around the trap with lots of flies and a bat but there wasn't a great catch.
The following were new for the year:
green carpet
shoulder-striped wainscot
dark sword-grass
heart & dart
grey pine carpet
The dark sword-grass is an immigrant species as is the silver_Y
I also found my first large yellow underwing of the year in the garden earlier.
Not a moth but I was interested to see a dragon-fly larva emerge from our garden pond, climb the wall and 'release' a black-tailed skimmer (Orthetrum cancellatum).
