The teens of April

A few days away so no trapping in the early teens but with the colder nights I hope I did not miss too much. Last three nights though I have got back to it and the year list has started to increase after stuttering a bit so far. A few pictures here of some additions to the garden list and also another very early riser. Some changes of view included to show distinctive features.


Purple Thorn - new for garden 16/4

Oak-tree Pug - garden first 18/4 (hiding in the pot lid)


Muslin Moth - garden first 18/4

Muslin Moth - tickle my tummy !



Campion - looking a bit rough (should have had a lie-in until June perhaps...)


Other species trapped in the last three nights 16/4 to 18/4:

Streamer

Brindled Pug

Double-striped Pug

Waved Umber

Hebrew Character

Common Quaker

Clouded Drab

Early Grey

Pale Mottled Willow
