Not a lot to blog about recently at Wychwood Moths as the summer stutters along through the rain. Having reached 119 macro species by the end of June in 2011, the total of 75 in the first six months of 2012 was a very poor return with some species that occurred on numerous occasions previously completely absent for the year.
July started well with a Small Fanfoot as first for garden and a few days later a Lychnis was also added. These are really gap fillers rather than quality but they all count...
Fern - 6th July - four previous garden records, this one nicely marked
Varied Coronet - 4th July - only one previous record on 4/6/10, on only my third garden trapping session
Hi Andy, that Lychnis looks might pink in your photo, could it be a Campion?
