SP9326: 17/07/12 - Lacking Lackeys

A minimum temperature of 15.6 Celsius tempered by a blustery wind produced one new* micro - Ephestia parasitella - but at least it was dry.

The table below shows the totals of The Lackey seen by week (ignoring the 'year' part) over the three years 2010-2012.
Last night's individual was easily the latest 'first of year' (by 16 days) and is chronologically the 28th of the 33 seen over this period.
