Moths by lamp and sheets

We spend a couple of hours before midnight by the sheet hanging next to the UV lamp. Hopefully
it is warm and still, and as a result good speed on night flies, spinners, and maybe outright
some large and impressive swarmer. Hopefully we will get help from the species specialist Partik
Celander, and perhaps someone else, to speciesize the aviation fans who are drawn to the light and the sheet.
Should there be bad moth weather for the adventure, we may move the activity forward
week. Call Björn, 070 –2687171, and check how it will be before you go to meet up!
PLACE: We rig the sheet at "Kopparödlebacken"
right next to the intersection between Snoggevägen and
Svennavägen, a few hundred meters south of
St. Olof.
Look for the blue-white light from the lamp.
Park at the village because unauthorized
motor traffic is prohibited on the dirt roads!
PLEASE BRING sunglasses that
protects against the lamp's UV radiation,
as well as headlamp or flashlight for
not to stumble in the dark. Do you have any
field handbook of moths come
it certainly useful. Coffee, seating mat
and camera can be nice to have with you.
