April showers...from the moths

It's either really good, or really poor here lately, and the moths are really coming in 'dribs & drabs' currently, much like the saying 'April showers' which we never seem to get anymore.

I remember as a kid, February was snow, March was wet and windy and April was sunshine and showers, every year was the same! Nowadays you just cannot tell what will happen.

The last few times i've trapped, i've barely scraped 10 moths, completely blanking on the 15th, last night just 12 moths were in and around the trap. Luckily one was a new species for the year, a Shuttle-shaped Dart.


The weather continues to be warmish during the day but still a bit cool for moths.

Garden species count for 2020 now upto 56.


12 moths of 9 species to 250w Clear MV Robinson Trap
