January 30th 2020

It takes a lot to stir me from my Winter laziness regarding active trapping, but last night I went off to Wigmore Rolls and ran a trap for a couple of hours. Not very exciting with just 4 species. Pale Brindled Beauty (18), Chestnut (8), Dark Chestnut (3) and Agonopterix heracliana (1).  I also put a trap in the garden at home on Bringsty Common nearest the woody area and was rewarded with 5 species. Torticodes alternella (31), Pale Brindled Beauty (4), Dotted border (2), Early (1) and Spring Usher (1). Not very exciting! Peter Hall
