Tyntesfield Bioblitz 20 May 2011

The Cafe Birders joined in the Bioblitz at Tyntesfield National Trust on Friday night and ran 7 traps until about 03.00 on Saturday morning.  It was rather cold, but, nevertheless, we caught 50 macro species, the highlight of which was a Beautiful Snout. Previous records in the Bristol Region were in 1956, 1958, 1969 and one between 1986 and 1991.  What an elegant moth!
