A little quiet for my liking

Quiet times in my garden trap last night with not much of interest. 
Light Emerald are still holding on and a fresh really large female Orange Swift was a bit of a surprise. Certainly the latest record and biggest individual I have ever recorded.
The weather was a bit cool but with little wind the temperature stayed at around 8c. The next few nights could be wet but with much warmer southern air pouring towards us it could still be worth running the trap.
