It has been a great start to the year with some lovely moths are first Macro of the year was Pale Brindled Beauty at the end of Feb and Oak Beauty at the start of March.
My first lifer of the year came on the 12th March a lovely Small Quaker and then the night after a lifer for Me and Dave Grey Shoulder-knot stunning moth and one Dave had always wanted :)
Quite a few Common Quakers too which was nice so much bigger than Small Quaker and differently marked.
Another Lifer for me on the 17th of March Early Grey one I had been hoping for and also a Clouded Drab only my second ever one and my last one being very worn so was over the moon to get another one, we also ended up getting another one a few days later we have also had quite a few Small Quakers in March and also in March and start of April we had lot's more Early Grey moths about 10 altogether and 10+ Hebrew Characters and Two Early Thorns in April.
On the 9th of April another lifer Lunar Marbled Brown beautiful moth and one I was puzzled by had to search in my moth book lol was a first for Dave's garden and we had a Lesser Swallow Prominent only my second ever one my last one was on a moth night last year so this one was even better to get it in Dave's garden :)
We had are first Flame Shoulder of the year on 11th of April.
What a cracking year so far and it's only April I can't wait to see what's to come in the following months this is why I love mothing so much you just never know what you might get it's just so exciting :)
