Not a lot doing with the moth trap this morning other than Large Yellow Underwings x 21, Copper Underwing agg x 3, Square-spot Rustic x 3, Beautiful Plume x 1 and Light-brown Apple-moths x 4.
Butterflies continue during these sunny warm days with plenty of nectering opportunities. This Painted Lady appeared early on with the sun behind it.
As the day progressed others appeared in the garden with Red Admiral, Large and Small Whites, Speckled Wood, Comma and Peacock. The Painted Lady stayed most of the day on the Verbena bonariensis.
A Small Copper was along Ringby Lane near Ploughcroft's ski-slope.
