Species List for 08/09/2017

The weather was awful, but I ran a single trap in our back door porch. I'd been playing with an old set of electrics that had been given to me, and a spare funnel I had. With the aid of a Bexley Council waste paper box,an old bit of hard bard, an old bit of perspex and a lot of bodging I knocked up a new 125W Box trap, which I tried out in the porch. It managed 59 moths of 11 species.
