Description

Broken trap - Bring out the reserve! A bit of a nightmare last night, I went to switch the trap on and....nothing! Ah nuts. It was late and I was tired, so I brought the trap in to look at it this morning. In place of it, I ran my 160w Mercury Blended Robinson Trap, which usually catches a lot less but the bonus is that it does attract different things. A trip down memory lane HERE is a catch from the same date using the same trap, five years ago in 2009. The weather was perfect, no wind and plenty of cloud cover, although it did clear sometime during the night as it was clear at 5.30am this morning. The emergency change of trap didn't disappoint.... Micro's have definitely increased in numbers over the last few days with 9 new ones for the year last night Pandemis cerasana finally turned up (2 worn examples)...after seeing these for weeks out in the field.

It was lovely to see my third garden Eyed Hawk-moth and a second Phoenix.

Luckily my MV Robinson Trap is back in action!
