Siege Wood

Whilst my trapping permits are on hold due to my risk of passing on Covid-19 whilst trapping in woods after dark on my own, I decided to run 2 Robinsons at Siege Wood, Woolhope. This is a scrubby, part wooded part reverted limestone grassland site. To date 90 species recorded (I think) and about another 10 micros still to id, so at around100 species for a 3 hour session, not too bad. It wasn't busy, but a slow but steady stream of moths arrived. Highest count for a species was Marbled White-spot at 58. Peter Hall
