Tip of the Iceberg

We are still in the ice-age with the prevailing winds from the North, although it was warmer than the Met. Office forecast of 4 deg.C. Only 1 trap was set (the Homebase Funnel) in the shed entrance door and of course the old bedsheet on the shed wall with a 25w blacklight to illuminate it. A total of 14 moths of 9 species were found, one of which was a superb Pebble Hook-tip, a garden first.
