VC24 video footage taken today of a Peregrine at the top of our church steeple. Now it looks like I can actually put a moth trap out tonight some times you just have one of those days.

Just when you think nothing is happening I get a call from the park ranger Sam Flowers at Emberton Country Park there’s a moth on the gate house wall.
What a moth Black-spotted Chestnut. To say it made our day is an understatement.

Congratulations Ruth

4 x Mottled Umber all within 18inches of a wall light this morning. A great example of how variable they can be.

Wonderful art

Feathered Thorn

VC24 Olney North Bucks.
Finished the night on 34/19
with 3NFY, a battered Feathered Thorn wrapped up the night. The Mottled Umber being a full moth earlier than I’ve ever caught one before. The Swallow tail being the latest I’ve ever caught one.

Only 22 moths but the Clancy’s Rustic is a life moth for me. I’m also pleased with the Mallow which I catch in low numbers.
