Hemel Hempstead Field Trip - 31/07/13 David, Roger and myself decided to blitz Gadesprings with as many traps as we could use, so plumping for 3 off the mains and 2 further along the canal running from the generator. The hope was to get some of the more uncommon Wainscots, but we did not manage hardly any, with just a few Smoky, one Common and one Southern.
