Bringsty Common

I decided to run a single mv light on the night of the 23rd and again last night (26th).  The 23rd was quite a productive night with 140 moths of 15 species, whilst last night, with the cooler temperatures and rain I recorded 58 moths of 14 species.  The usual suspects plus Grey Shoulder-knot, Red Chestnut, Dotted Chestnut and Pale Pinion. Topping the bill on each night was Common Quaker with a combined tally of 73 individuals, followed by Hebrew Character 24 and in bronze medal position was Yellow Horned with 17. Peter Hall
Bringsty Common: Dotted Chestnut
