On Friday 26th July we caught 4 Golden-rod Pugs in Sand Bay which roughly coincides with the date of last years worn specimen from Brean Down of 22nd July 2012.

I failed to get this one, it would be a tick for me, took three pugs, they were haworthiata, tripunctaria and simpliciata.
ReplyDeletesimpliciata would have been a lifer for me and one that I have been trying to trap in Sand Bay. Nice to know they are there.
