Myself and Alan Dale ran a couple of MV lamps and an actinic lamp at Low Hameringham (SE of Horncastle) on Saturday night as part of the LNU field meeting there. A few species were also noted during the sunny afternoon session including twin-spot carpet, silver Y and straw dot.

About 64 species recorded. Probably over 200 moths caught in traps with several hundred free-flyers including impressive numbers of ghost swifts along road verges and over pasture. Some migrant activity with the diamondbacks noted.
