Spring

Last night was productive with over 400 moths comprising of 24 species.

Best micros were Zelleria hepariella, Agonopterix alstromeriana and Caloptilia semifascia.

C. semifascia

Also, first Lead-coloured Drab of the year. An exceptionally dull form.

  1. I'm certainly keeping an eye out for Lead-coloured Drab at Commins Coch!

  2. I was thrilled to trap my first Lead-coloured Drab 2 nights ago, and have it confirmed ! Haven't reached anything like your number of moths though - 154 and 18 species - and even that number took quite a long time to ID!
