30th June 2014 ..Garden Moths latest

The last three nights have been on the cool side by late afternoon and into the evening.
Catch numbers have been low and micro moths have been scarce, especially the small ones.
Last night was much better and the temperature stayed in the high teens until the early hours.
The day started off well with a Large Skipper being added to the butterfly year list.
