I have finally succumbed to the children's pressure and am now connected to the internet. I have so enjoyed reading through the latest sightings that I will try to join in on a regular basis. I am having a strange year moth-wise. The number of different species is standing up reasonably well but the number of individuals is about 20% of what it was in 2003 and 2004 and less than half of the numbers even for last year. However we have not yet had a night where the weather conditions would lead me to expect a bumper catch. Up to the end of June I had recorded 170 different species of macro in my garden. The highlights have been my first Tawny Pinion on 15/03/08, Dark Spectacle on 08/05/08, Narrow Winged Pug on 09/05/08, Poplar Kitten on 20/05/08, my first live Lobster Moth on 11/06/08 ( I'd only found a pair of wings left by the local sparrows before), and my first Lackey since 2002 on 25/06/08.
