@jesika2 I didn't catch an awful lot last night-1st garden tiger and a beautiful Clouded Buff ,the highlights. Anyway you make up for it with your incredible caterpillar shots.There is some research indicating that light pollution is having an adverse reaction on catches-not a problem here in the actual middle of nowhere.
@steveandkerry It seems to be a common story, sadly, most traps are not catching what might be expected - hoped for. One of the post-docs at Uni of York is working on light pollution's effects. Thank you so very much for your kind works about my caterpillars. I have a Brimstone (boy I think) about to eclose. It's been a very slow process, he was an egg twice as long as usual and he's a week past his expected birth date. He's being VERY closely watched!
