Warmer nights coming I believe! last night was a good 14c most of the night, this morning sat at 12c.
Very few Moths outside with most in the trays around the trap and virtually nothing inside.
Still getting the last tatty summer Moths.
New for the year was (I think) a rather pretty Dotted Chestnut, which compared to my one last year, wasn't very 'Dotted'! and has now turned out to be a strikingly marked Dusky-lemon Sallow It's my third ever record so over the moon.
Also new for the Garden was Agonopterix subpropinquella (f.rhodochrella) This and Agonopterix propinquella are very hard to distinguish but the form f.rhodochrella has a distinct black collar near the head, which my little micro features.
