Bugs in da house
Last night I ran my moth trap on the windowsill for an hour and caught a Brimstone and Common Marbled Carpet. Also in the trap was a Harlequin Ladybird and my first ever Birch Shieldbug - a 'first' for the patch.

On the station this morning I saw my first Rose Chafer of the year on a Hogweed plant on the opposite platform (seen through binoculars - my eyes aren't that good!)
