Nearly into May and still dismal catches seem to dominate, at this time of year typically we see the post-Orthosia lull as we wait for the first summer species to arrive.....this year though I think we may see a cross-over with spring species flying with summer species, possibly.
Not alot to report last night, only new moth for the year was an Alucita hexadactyla and subsequently new for the garden aswell. It is only my 12th record ever.
