Similar sized catch, more variety!

A really nice catch of moths last night to my garden trap, with plenty more inside the trap come dawn.
 
Numbers of Common Quaker and Hebrew Character increase slightly and some quality filters through, with Oak Beauty, Oak Nycteoline and a stunning Pine Beauty, what a smashing little moth. 

Temperatures are starting to dip at night from now on, tonight might be the last chance for a good week.
