Species List for 05/08/2023

 Saturdays weather was terrible, the wind was blowing and forecast to get worse over night, with a lot of rain, and I still put the traps out. It was probably the worst catch in any of the main months I've had. Only 51 moths of 22 species, and if would have been worse if Lesser Broad-bordered Yellow Underwings hadn't put in a decent appearance with 17 individuals.
