A nice photo at least!

So the trap went on on Sunday and there were 50 moths, of which there were 21 Small Quaker and a few others of the current suspects.

There was however an Early Thorn, not new to us, but a welcome visitor nonetheless. A nice photo, taken by Catherine - thanks.

Early Thorn
The Early Thorn is one of those annoying moths that does not want you to see the upper sides of its wings.

The trap went on on Tuesday too and there were over 100 moths, 2 Agonopterix heracleana being of interest - the first micros for some time. There were 81 Small Quakers - how many will there be tonight?
