Last Saturday I visited Luddenham to try out a pheromone lure for Hornet Moths. This was highly successful with 4 being quickly attracted to the lure and after a bit of wait one settled nearby for a photograph. The moth trap has been active this week with the warmer weather. Stag Beetles are being seen in the garden daily. This morning I had my 3rd ever record of a Marbled White Spot, and 2 Varied Coronets were new for the year. New for the garden was a rather dull micro: Bryatropha terrella. A Little Owl has been showing well at Oare Marshes.
