Middleton NR Constant Effort Visit

Heysham


Moths:  Only 11 species in the Hut Trap this morning, but did include an early True Lovers Knot, which is not common here.

Middleton
The fourth CES visit here was predictably quiet, although weather conditions were favourable.
Many of the breeding species here are summer visitors so incubation is probably in progress, reducing the amount of movement and hence fewer captures.
