I often am asked what are the best conditions for moth trapping. I always say warm drizzle is by far the best and last night proved the point.
Like lots of other moth-ers we have had a terrible start to the year. In fact it was often an occasion for celebration to have one moth!
So although not an over-large catch 25 species was wonderful. A few photos below, please excuse the quality as they were taken in a hurry. Ina and Tony
