Last night was milder producing the usual visitors to the garden trap. The woodland, on the other hand produced 16 macro species with abundant Double-striped & Brindled Pugs. Others included our first Lunar Marbled Brown for this year and this rather early Grey Birch.

Grey Birch has been recorded 157 times since the first in 1952. There are only 3 records earlier than this one, all on 11th April, 1 in 2005 at Tregaron, and 2 in 2017 at New Quay and Cors Fochno. Lunar Marbled Brown is about 2 weeks later than the earliest records in recent years.
