19th May 2011.....Half of last nights trap yields

After losing all the moths in Skinner #1 to an adventurous Blue Tit, here are Trap #2 results plus potted species from walls.
Six more species for the year and it may have been more but I didn't really have the time to sift through a pile of wings !
The wine side bet has swung my way again. I am 4 or 5 species ahead now, but Captain Trappings is putting up his large gazebo tonight.
He hangs a couple of 1200mm disco u/v lights inside and leaves the two ends open. It's very productive and I could find myself playing catch-up after the weekend.
Anyway, back to the moths.
