A Good Start

On Monday night singletons of Dotted Border and Early Moth came to the actinic light in the garden, while last night it was just Early Moth although there were five of them. 

Dotted Border, Westcott 14th January

It looks as though we're now heading into another cold snap for at least a couple of weeks so there's little likelihood of any more moth activity for quite a while. However, the ten species I've had here so far this year is a better result than normal for January (the average, over the past decade at least, has been just six for the entire month) so I should be pleased with that.  Back into hibernation, then!
