And still they come
Last night's collection of moths to the garden actinic was unexpectedly good, comprising 107 individuals of 30 species. They included Blood-vein, Pine Carpet, Willow Beauty & Rosy Rustic not seen here over the last ten days or so, but best visitor of all was a smart migrant Pearly Underwing. Black Rustic had another burst of activity with 21 appearing and two of them had paired up inside the trap by this morning. There were just three micros, Blastobasis lacticolella, Acleris schalleriana (the first sighting here of this autumn's brood) and Emmelina monodactyla.
