5th June 2011..Micro catch up

Last nights weather was appalling,for mothing, heavy rain all night, very good for the garden and local farmers tho. It was "laid back" mothing last night. A 1200mm flourescent with a blacklight tube was propped up against my patio doors, right next to my computer seat. As and when the moths appeared on the window I simply opened the door and potted them up !
The "Laid-Back" method.
This will now be a nightly occurrence as I added Bordered Pug to my year list on a night with very little action.

  1. I like your style. The only other time I've seen windows lit up with neon strips was in Amsterdam ......

  2. You surprise me Mark.....De Wallen is not noted for its lepidoptera.
    Lots of other "creatures of the night" though (^_*)
