Falkland Palace, 13/02/2015

Good to get the moth trap running again in 2015 - no records for February here before, so anything would be a new 'stake in the ground' for future recording. A nice evening saw a small but nice haul, with 6 moth of 4 species and a Great Diving Beetle.

Of course mothing at this time of the year is unknown to me, so the ID struggle is up and running again! Hopefully I will soon be overlaying last year's learning with some repetition and reinforcement.
