An Improvement Over Recent Nights
Posted: Tue May 18, 2021 9:38 am
Judging by recent posts, my efforts have been on a par with other recorders, which have been slow and erratic. Most nights recently have produced only one or two species and some nights nothing.
Last night (17/05/2021 min. temp 8.2 deg. C) was a definite improvement with 10 moths of 8 species.
Vine’s Rustic (NFY), Spruce Carpet (NFY), Ochreous Pug, Shuttle-shaped Dart, Rustic Shoulder-knot,
Tachystola acroxantha 3, Light-brown Apple Moth and White-shouldered House Moth.
Other recent ‘highlights’.
02/05/2021 – Garden Carpet.
08/05/2021 – Least Black Arches.
09/05/2021 – Streamer (a real highlight in my garden).
10/05/2021 – Bright-line Brown-eye.
11/5/2021 – Nematopogon swammerdamella.
12/05/2021 – Small Phoenix and Flame Shoulder.
14/05/2021 – Heart and Dart and Rustic Shoulder-knot.
15/05/2021 – Yellow-barred Brindle and Ochreous Pug.
