21st April 2009

A warmer night was reflected in a much higher catch than of late - 23 moths of 10 species.
The first Grey Dagger of the year sat on the wall above the trap this morning and continued the theme of early arrivals - this about 2 weeks earlier than the previous record.

The second Pale Pinion of the year was inside the trap:
