A flurry of inland migrant activity

Finally the temperature at night was ok on Sunday night, and with lightish winds I had hoped of something new for the year, and indeed there was.
2 new species were added to the year list including a flurry of Scarce Bordered Straw.
 
Other possible migrants included 2x Delicate, 1x Clancy's Rustic and a Turnip Moth.

The trap has been off at the start of this week due to the heavy rain and floods.

I will try again soon.

Moth garden list for 2024 stands at 609 species
