There were about 150 moths in two of the heath traps this morning, and in one about 34 species. This included the first White Plume Moth, Marbled Green, Burnished Brass and Lychnis of the year. There has only been four records of Lychnis on Bardsey, the last being in 2007. The last record of White Plume was also in 2007.
