Catch Report - 14-04-13A superb catch last night and despite the stiff breeze, it didn't seem to put the moths off too much.34 moths of 10 species were found in and around the trap.2 were new for the year, both Emmelina monodactyla and Grey Shoulder-knot (the latter was about 4 metres away from the trap)New for the garden was Diurnea fagella which I didn't expect as not many people have been reporting it yet this year.Interestingly of the 34 moths, only 2 were at my light (searching extensively with the torch) fro 8pm til 11pm, bearing in mind our streetlights go out at 12.15am, is this having an effect on them I wonder?Star of the catch was a Herald, a moth I don't see too often and only my 8th record.My records for it are as followsNone in 200825/03/09 - Hatfield Broad Oak10/04/10 - Hatfield Broad Oak24/04/10 - Hatfield Broad Oak08/07/10 - Canvey Wick17/07/10 - Harlow Museum21/09/10 - Sawbridgeworth MashNone in 201114/07/12 - Rye Meads14/04/13 - StevenageCatch Report - 14-04-13 - Back Garden Stevenage - 1x 125w MV Robinson TrapMacro Moths1x Herald [NFG]1x Grey Shoulder-knot [NFY]4x Clouded Drab2x Chestnut10x Hebrew Character7x Common Quaker 1x Oak Beauty6x Small QuakerMicro Moths1x Diurnea fagella [NFG]1x Emmelina monodactyla [NFY]

Catch Report - 15/03/12 - Farmland/Back Garden - HertfordshireAnother good night for numbers with 56x Small Quaker being the most numerous.A getting slightly late Small Brindled Beauty was a surprise, and it was in fantastic condition.No new for year's but I did get some lovely colour forms of Clouded Drab and my 2nd and 3rd Lead-coloured Drab for the year which I was pleased about.The weather continues to stay very unsettled with cool mornings.Apologise for the photo quality as it is very gloomy outside this morning, making photography hard!Catch Report - 15/03/12 - 125w MV Robinson Trap - Back Garden/FarmlandMacro Moths2x Lead-coloured Drab3x Twin-spotted Quaker56x Small Quaker23x Common Quaker9x Hebrew Character18x Clouded Drab3x March Moth6x Oak Beauty2x Chestnut1x Satellite1x Engrailed1x Small Brindled BeautyMicro Moths1x Diurnea fagella

Catch Report - 08/03/12 - Farmland/Back Garden - HertfordshireA poor night by recent standards, considering it stayed above 6c all night.The next trapping will be on sunday 11th and hopefully I will trap more than just 6 for 11 hours of light!Catch Report - 08/03/12 - 125w MV Robinson Trap - Back Garden/FarmlandMacro Moths2x March Moth1x Small Quaker1x Common Quaker1x ChestnutMicro Moths1x Diurnea fagella [NFY]

Foggy but productiveI set the trap up last night on another clear sky, this seems to be the norm at the moment and with that bright moon over half way through the night it can't be helping.Also every morning we have had patchy fog with temperatures close to frezing, this morning was no different.But alas two new species for the year were recorded, Twin-spotted Quaker and Diurnea fagella with 21 moths of 7 species in total.Catch Report - 13/03/14 - Back Garden Stevenage - 1x 125w MV Robinson TrapMacro Moths1x Twin-spotted Quaker [NFY]7x Hebrew Character4x Chestnut2x Clouded Drab3x Common Quaker2x Satellite2x March MothMicro Moths1x Diurnea fagella [NFY]
