Epirrita species showed a vast difference between sites - 59 individuals in woodland, 5 in open wetland and 0 in the garden. Feathered Thorn was absent from the woodland.
Even though some near-by large Leylandii were cut down last year we did manage one Blair's Shoulder-knot in the garden.
Two species of note were a late Narrow-winged Pug and a Small Seraphim much later than any previous record we know of. Does anyone know of such a late record of the latter species?
