18th March 2011...garden traps

Overnight min. temp. Minus 0.1 deg. calm, clear,
It was hardly worth the effort as temperatures plunged.
The next few days look OK though.

4 moths of 3 species :-
2187 Common Quaker 2 ... Orthosia cerasi
2190 Hebrew Character ... Orthosia gothica
2243 Early Grey ... Xylocampa areola

March Moth is proving to be difficult this year, so this coming week could be my last chance to record it in the garden.
Past records show :-
2010 ... Zero
2011 ... 7... with individuals caught on the 12th Feb, 23rd Feb, 11th March, 13th March, 22nd March, 23rd March and 3rd April.
