Just catching up from our field trip out to Thorndon Country Park back on the 05th of June! where Graham Bailey, Don Down and myself set up numerous traps amongst vegetation and under trees, arguably the best Moth was Rosy Marbled, followed by a worn Birch Mocha. Lots of new species for me and Ancylis mitterbacheriana was the best Micro Moth.
Finally sorted out the pictures and records for what was an astonishing night, unfortunately it was cut short by torrential rain at 12pm and it was not very fun sorting out soggy Moths!
Nevertheless the huge list can be found below

Dingy Shell
