A Blog for moth recorders in Bucks, Berks and Oxon

Cosmopolitan
Having thoroughly enjoyed the Upper Thames BC Branch members' day yesterday I was inspired to put out my garden moth trap for the first time in ages, and I'm very glad I did: ten species resulted, including this Cosmopolitan. It's the first time I've ever seen this scarce migrant - not sure how often it's been found in Bucks before (there are only four records in Berkshire).

Fantastic - I'd hazard a guess that it is a first for Bucks! Well done!!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed, first for Bucks. Well done Martin. That's success for the BC meeting, inspiring you to put the trap out.
