Anyway I put the MV out on Thursday night at my alternative site and caught my 1st Small Elephant Hawk-moth of the year, I love these moths so I had to put this photo on.
I did have 19+ May beetles in the trap also, which are a pain, they cling to your fingers so I end up flicking them off.
I had another Hawk-moth (Poplar) and 23 other species so not a bad total.
While in Norfolk I did find that there wasn't many butterflies about apart from Orange-tip's & Brimstone's & Holly Blue's. It's still very much springtime.
Lovely photos, Mel.
