Garden Catch 27/07/19 - Sparingly does it

With the weather on the little cool side and rain on and off most of the day, I didn't expect much come Sunday morning. Despite the rain, it was still and fairly mild, and the new for year species reflected this.

Species were down to around the 40 mark and about average for the time of year as we seemingly start to shift seasons early again.

It was nice to record two really fresh Mouse Moths, a very boring looking species actually.. but one was particularly dark in colouration, so out came the camera before it scuttled away (Quite literally, they prefer to walk about than fly straight off, hence the name).

Agriphila selasella was the pick of the micro's a species that is relatively new to the garden list having only added it to the garden list last year.

Garden species count for 2019 now upto 378.
