Falkland Palace, 6/6/2014, 21:30-00:00

At first quiet, with S-G Carpets flitting around the grasses/Yellow Rattle. First notable appearance by the trap was a Brimstone, which was the first of many. A good spread of species which quickly overran my pots and ability to ID in the field, so we gradually dismantled the trap one egg box at a time and retired.
