A quick summary of catch at Howick 28/07/19
I went out at midnight and the whole place was leaping with moths with a 'landing pattern' circling in the light beam above the trap high into the night.
Despite the massive numbers ( a total record smashing catch for my 125w Robinson in the 10 years operating) there were no big surprises.
Anyway the numbers are 1209 moths of 121 records. There must have been thousands hiding in surrounding vegetation because spuggies are still catching moths this evening.
Highlights.
A massive 214 Common Footman.
3 Dingy Footman
1 Blood Vein
My second Dingy Shears ( the other was still in the fridge)
My 3rd and 8th county Othotelia sparganella that flew as I was potting it.
The 20th county record of Endothena quadrimaculana.
8 Painted Ladies quietly roosting in the egg trays.
I'll be leaving the light off tonight and must wash the trap before I next put it on...
