Carpets

Amongst many things I've not done a lot of over the last couple of years is photographing moths. I'll try and capture a few more through this year, especially some of the commoner species.

From the garden trap, 23/05/2010

A pretty good night in the garden traps, with the warm and humid conditions bringing a total of 122 of 37sp. (125W MV 61 of 25, 80W actinic 61 of 26) including 12 firsts for the year in the garden. I was pleased to see the actinic catch up, but I can't be sure on one nights showing if this was down to excellent conditions or a genuine iprovement through changing the tubes.
