Dark Sword-grass

A surprise amongst the 40-odd Orthosias in last night's garden actinic trap was this rather tired-looking Dark Sword-grass.  It seems unlikely for it to have arrived on the easterly winds of the last few days so, assuming that it really is a migrant and not home-grown, has presumably been lurking locally for quite a while, probably since that unusually warm patch back in February.
