Gazeboo!

After yesterday's big build up nothing really happened in the gazebo- the best being two Shears and the 3rd Maiden's Blush of the year. But then again, compared to the haul on 19th it was generally not as good a night anyway. Only two new species in the form of a tatty Blood-vein and a garden 1st Plum Tortrix. The gazebo is probably best suited to hot summer nights. But now it's up, it won't hurt to try it again.
