A nice December Record from North Bucks
It was a nice surprise to find this unseasonal Angle Shades in the trap this morning - the day after I discovered a fully active adult frog whilst clearing out the still-growing Fools Watercress from my garden stream. What a strange end to the year!
Very nice. The adults are sometimes tempted to emerge in warmer periods during the winter months so this isn't unprecedented (I've had adult records from every month of the year), but it doesn't happen all that often and a sighting like this makes such a pleasant change from just Winter Moths and Mottled Umbers!
