Species List for 03/08/2025

 I had decided, that although I was hobbling a little better, not to risk putting the traps out, having been advised to rest my leg. At 9.15 the need to get the traps going became overwhelming and I managed to put out two,the 80W MV Robinson in the Pond Garden  and the 125W Robinson in the Back Garden, not risking going down the slope to the front garden. It was a good decision, with 366 Moths of about 84 species with two NFY, including a Spurge Hawk-moth, the third one here and a change of date, the other two were both on the 21st June, one in 2007 and the other in 2017.
