I have been moth-trapping in my garden in Huntingdonshire, VC31 since 2003 and by 2017 had recorded over 830 species - the complete list can be seen on the Earith Moth List link below. The garden backs onto the Ouse Washes and is just yards from the Old Bedford River so whilst there is little woodland locally, I attract a wide range of species.

Aethes tesserana has been a long awaited addition to the garden list as I have netted it locally on a few occasions. As is always the way, the one I do eventually catch is a rather worn specimen. First new garden record of the year.
