A Blog for moth recorders in Bucks, Berks and Oxon
Steve, I think the first one might be a Mottled Rustic - but wait for others to confirm.
Speaking as a non-expert I'd say Mottled Rustic for the first and Wax moth for the second.
I'd go along with that too, and the third looks to me like a worn Clay.
Many thanks one and all. It's really useful when you have a pretty worn specimen to go back to the books and look at the faint marks where the mint markings would have been, as in the case particularly of the Clay.
