An introduction...Hi! My name is Mike Wall, and I live in Basingstoke, Hampshire. I've always been keenly interested in natural history, and have been birding since a small lad. However, my interest in moths didn't start seriously until I attended a public mothing session in 2002. After that night when I was amazed by the variety of species on show, I soon got my own trap and have never looked back. I have this year (2009) taken on the role of county micro-moth recorder to share some of the burden with Tim Norriss, as thanks to the burgeoning interest in moth recording in our county, the amount of data we now have to handle is too much for one person. I setup Hantsmoths in October 2005 (building on work started in an earlier website, www.bike2nature.co.uk) to provide an information portal for the county's moth-ers, and to give my burgeoning digital photo collection a home! It has gone from strength to strength and traffic is increasing on a year-on-year basis. The recent revamp has given the site a boost and I look forward to this continuing in 2010. Mike
