Certainly is Steve! It's really payed off this season running the trap in less than optimal temps! 3 NFG 2 macro 1 Micro agg with 1 being a lifer but we won't mention that one ๐
Twin-spotted Quaker NFG & Diurnea fagella Nuneaton VC38 23/3/26 just the 5 moths overnight but when 1 is NFG I'm not complaining.. others being Common & Small Quaker & Early Grey. #teammoth
Yellow-legged Mining Bee (female)
Yellow-legged Mining Bee (Galley Common,Warks 20/3/26)
I'd settle for the P Pinion & TS Quaker! Still need both for garden....
Yeah thats was my thinking Clive! Would of been so much easier if it had been a male!!
Yeah small stand of them about 15mins walk away...
Cheers Mark ๐
Thanks Steve! It was only when I saw 1 of your replies yesterday about the first few hrs of darkness might produce we decided to trap! Normally with low temps I don't Normally bother.
Been trying to talk myself out of it most of the day!
Lead-coloured Drab?
Lead-coloured Drab?
Lead-coloured Drab (Nuneaton VC38 19/3/26) Hoping I've got the ID correct? as it would be a lifer for Donna & myself... #teammoth
Early Grey
Early Grey
Early Grey (Nuneaton VC38 17/3/26) Nothing in the trap again overnight but Donna saved the day by finding this resting up by the front door this afternoon. #teammoth
Certainly been a early influx of migrants I've had 5 Blackcaps & 3 Chiffchaff locally last cpl of days.
Yeah mostly the same here Paul! Strong breeze anything really below 10 deg is a waste of electricity & my time! Then the multiple street lamps front & back of my house make it challenging!
Hebrew Character
Common Quaker
Small Quaker
Finally after many blanks a last min decision to trap resulted in my 1st macros of the Year! Hebrew Character, Common Quaker & Small Quaker (Nuneaton VC38 2/3/26) #teammoth

Thanks Steve! So glad I made the effort to go again...
