6th Oct 2013 ... October Coronet

A Varied Coronet was attracted to the Synergetic fluorescent lamps last night.
This is the first autumn record for the garden

2170 ... Varied Coronet

Our VC30 recorders, Andy and Melissa Banthorpe, have just informed me that the two previous latest records in VC30 Bedfordshire were August 1977 and September 9th 1983, so this is indeed a late one.
