My Apologies to al but these are the results of National Moth Night and our Meeting at Orchard Wood. Four others turned up to join Mike and I and my thanks to Martin, Judy, Stewart and Alistair.
Very slow night but very few hornets the record for this site is about 260 in one night BRRR. Mike Packed up his trap at 10 pm due to the impending electric storm. I escorted all off site then returned to empty the three other traps leaving my light above the sheet going. Well I did epty two traps before it hit. wet through to the skin in 60 seconds but battled on to wind up the 600 meteres of cable and retrieve a very wet sheet and copy of Skinners. However it was National Moth Night. Thanks to all
