Description: Some more moths! Another month passes and weather has not really changed much! Although the night's seem to be a tad warmer so with this prospect I set the MV Robinson up last night in hope for at least something other than a Weevil! It was indeed worth it, after half an hour a Pale Brindled Beauty was observed clinging to the window behind the trap. Another two hours pass and I see something blowing in the wind caught in a cobweb on the back door. It was good and bad news, it was a garden first Early Moth! The bad news, the spider had beat me too it! Spurred on by a flurry of activity I left it running all night and come 7am I found 2 Chestnuts and a March Moth, all in the trap.

Description: Catch Report - 08/01/12 - Farmland/Back Garden - Hertfordshire A pleasing start to the year with 4 moths this morning, a bonus being all different species to get the species count off to a good start for 2012. Best Moth was a single Early Moth, a Moth i've only recorded a few times before (this being my 3rd ever). Mild conditions continue to dominate our weather systems with highs of 10c and lows of 6c expected over the next few days.

Description: Just the one Moth to the trap last night and first for the year, an Acleris schalleriana, did expect a few more but that is the way it goes I suppose! Today outside a pub in Essendon, my second Moth for 2013 was an Early Moth, not a common Moth in my book, Moth is in the fridge ready for a photoshoot tomorrow! I hope everyone else has started the year off well, although I think it might be a slow spring after all that rain we have had prior to Christmas. Date: 5 January 2013, 13:22.
