Two Feathered Friend's

Another warm night and another opportunity to trap, although the light drizzle that was forecast overnight was far from drizzle, the garden was flooded this morning and we must have had a good inch of rain so not ideal for my mothy friends.
A small selection of 20 moths of 6 species was recorded, with last nights catch still in pots, November Moth is having a great year in my garden with a further 12 individuals recorded after the previous night's 7.
Two Feathered Thorn's were year firsts and a very mottled Mottled Umber was nice to see.
