Lots of moths in the garden trap, but 169 of them were Heart and Darts. Cydia fagiglandana and Neofaculta ericetella and a probable Nematopogon schwarziellus were new for the garden. Poplar Grey, Small Magpie, Agapeta zoegana and Cydia pomonella were new for the year.
What a difference a week makes, a total of only 265 Heart and Dart were recorded in the Ceredigion "mothathon" last weekend and that was the most abundant species.
