| Description |
First blank of May, finally a moth and a fantastic record Firstly, I blanked on Wednesday night in the garden using the 40w Actinic. This has never happened in May anywhere I have trapped! And it certainly hasn't happened when i've been running the 125w MV bulb, which I did last night (Thursday) and again it was so nearly a blank! Saved by a lonesome Rustic Shoulder-knot. Both days had been about 13-15 degrees but the promised cloud cover at night by the weathwer man was to be a hoax and by both mornings it was very chilly at around 4c, made even colder by a windy North-Easterly wind. But...some good news on a moth I found in the garden nearly two weeks ago. I took a Mompha specimen round to Graeme Smith yesterday as I wasn't convinced it was the usual Mompha subbistrigella that is very common in my garden along with Mompha epilobiella. It turned out to be Mompha jurassicella! It was sitting on Willowherb that was growing out of a plant pot that needed getting rid of...if I didn't go to weed it out I never would have seen it! It is a rare moth in the County with just 3 [previous records (tbc) and a new one to me and Moth no.583 for the garden. |
