Description: They keep on coming despite cooler conditions Another good catch last night with a further 8 new species for the year, including a garden first Shears and Enarmonia formosana. Shears must be having a good year I reckon, having caught two the previous night at Hexton. I will photograph all three together later. The weather continues to be rather unsettled for the end of May, and so I will probably have a break until Monday night now.
