First Moths of the Year
Whilst the mild, damp weather is no help to bird watchers it does encourage the first moths of the year to take to the wing.
Last night I caught 5 moths of two species, the Pale Brindled Beauty and 4 Red-green Carpet. The female Pale Brindled Beauty is flightless and therefore much harder to locate than the males which readily come to light.
