A day late posting for a rightful reason!
On Monday night I once again rigged the trap up on timer (early to bed for me at 9) and was quietly confident that I would get a pretty nice catch come the morning.
The conditions were perfect if a little breezy, but with a minimum of 16 degrees, a little rain sometime in the night I couldn't have asked for better.
Getting up bleary eyed and rubbing my eyes I could not believe it!
The trap was probably the fullest it has ever been in my 2 years of trapping here. Moths adorned most of the Perspex collar, and every hole of the egg boxes had at least one moth in it.
Macro Highlights were a second garden Small Ranunculus, new for garden Dingy Footman and Large Twin-spot Carpet and the trio Coxcomb, Maple and Pale Prominent.
Micros were headed by a first for me, the lovely marked Athrips mouffetella.
A slightly knackered Currant Pug which just would not lay flat and kept adorning a ‘Thorn-like’ posture… I didn’t record this species last year.
Also a worn Epinotia abbreviana after much identifying was a garden first.
All the moths were pretty lively for their photo-shoots, well apart from a very dozy Pale Prominent.
66 Macros and with only 10 less species of Micros at 56, it really was a stonking night.
Tonight looks warm and muggy again, I can’t top this list surely!

Drumbo, ON
Journal:
We need to learn from the Indigenous nations and learn their way using land-based learning - maybe we would respect the environment more.
Orthetrum sabina, the slender skimmer or green marsh hawk, is a species of dragonfly in the family Libellulidae.

Day 3 of Bonaire diving was a macro day, and I had some spectacular finds while scanning the reef. This pair of frogfish (male/female) on the same elephant ear sponge were one of the macro highlights from the trip.
A day late posting for a rightful reason!
On Monday night I once again rigged the trap up on timer (early to bed for me at 9) and was quietly confident that I would get a pretty nice catch come the morning.
The conditions were perfect if a little breezy, but with a minimum of 16 degrees, a little rain sometime in the night I couldn't have asked for better.
Getting up bleary eyed and rubbing my eyes I could not believe it!
The trap was probably the fullest it has ever been in my 2 years of trapping here. Moths adorned most of the Perspex collar, and every hole of the egg boxes had at least one moth in it.
Macro Highlights were a second garden Small Ranunculus, new for garden Dingy Footman and Large Twin-spot Carpet and the trio Coxcomb, Maple and Pale Prominent.
Micros were headed by a first for me, the lovely marked Athrips mouffetella.
A slightly knackered Currant Pug which just would not lay flat and kept adorning a ‘Thorn-like’ posture… I didn’t record this species last year.
Also a worn Epinotia abbreviana after much identifying was a garden first.

A day late posting for a rightful reason!
On Monday night I once again rigged the trap up on timer (early to bed for me at 9) and was quietly confident that I would get a pretty nice catch come the morning.
The conditions were perfect if a little breezy, but with a minimum of 16 degrees, a little rain sometime in the night I couldn't have asked for better.
Getting up bleary eyed and rubbing my eyes I could not believe it!
The trap was probably the fullest it has ever been in my 2 years of trapping here. Moths adorned most of the Perspex collar, and every hole of the egg boxes had at least one moth in it.
Macro Highlights were a second garden Small Ranunculus, new for garden Dingy Footman and Large Twin-spot Carpet and the trio Coxcomb, Maple and Pale Prominent.
Micros were headed by a first for me, the lovely marked Athrips mouffetella.
A slightly knackered Currant Pug which just would not lay flat and kept adorning a ‘Thorn-like’ posture… I didn’t record this species last year.
Also a worn Epinotia abbreviana after much identifying was a garden first.
All the moths were pretty lively for their photo-shoots, well apart from a very dozy Pale Prominent.
66 Macros and with only 10 less species of Micros at 56, it really was a stonking night.
Tonight looks warm and muggy again, I can’t top this list surely!

A day late posting for a rightful reason!
On Monday night I once again rigged the trap up on timer (early to bed for me at 9) and was quietly confident that I would get a pretty nice catch come the morning.
The conditions were perfect if a little breezy, but with a minimum of 16 degrees, a little rain sometime in the night I couldn't have asked for better.
Getting up bleary eyed and rubbing my eyes I could not believe it!
The trap was probably the fullest it has ever been in my 2 years of trapping here. Moths adorned most of the Perspex collar, and every hole of the egg boxes had at least one moth in it.
Macro Highlights were a second garden Small Ranunculus, new for garden Dingy Footman and Large Twin-spot Carpet and the trio Coxcomb, Maple and Pale Prominent.
Micros were headed by a first for me, the lovely marked Athrips mouffetella.
A slightly knackered Currant Pug which just would not lay flat and kept adorning a ‘Thorn-like’ posture… I didn’t record this species last year.
Also a worn Epinotia abbreviana after much identifying was a garden first.
All the moths were pretty lively for their photo-shoots, well apart from a very dozy Pale Prominent.
66 Macros and with only 10 less species of Micros at 56, it really was a stonking night.
Tonight looks warm and muggy again, I can’t top this list surely!
