Moths at work 03/06/21

A catch from Thursday night at work, a great variety of species were present on a rather warm night.

Highlights were both Poplar & Lime Hawk-moth (I had not had any Hawks in my garden until last night, again both the same species turned up, odd!) 

A stunning Coronet was also most welcome, and 22 Treble Lines was rather good, they are certainly having a good year here in Herts.

It's great to finally start getting warmer nights now!
