Not much happening in recent weeks

I have been trapping very little since my last post on the 19th, it's been quite wet and cold most nights and also far too windy.
On the 28th I did quite well for the end of October.
 
I added Sprawler to the year list and also checked 3 November Moth species, 2 were November, but one was a Pale November, only my 2nd garden record. 
Luckily i'm getting fairly confident with checking these now, and the moths get released unharmed and with a slightly woozy head! 
 
This coming week looks quite interesting, we shall see! 

Moth garden list for 2025 stands at 668 species
