Worminghall, Bucks

A few recent additions to the year list this weekend including Red and Yellow-line Quaker, November moth agg, Figure of Eight, Feathered Thorn, Brindled Green and Grey Shoulder Knot now takes the garden year list here to 482. Still getting 60 or so moths of 15 or so species on recent evenings. 

4 Rush Veneer in last night's stormy conditions. 

Also a mystery moth which I presume is something obvious but worn. 

Figure of Eight- only get one or two a year
One of last night's Rush Veneer was constantly in this resting position (trying to be something more interesting like a Gem)
I presume this is something obvious which has thrown me because its worn. Any help with identification much appreciated.

  1. Hi Peter, your mystery moth looks to me like a rather greyed-out form of Deep-brown Dart.

  2. Hi Peter,
    I agree - there have been quite a lot of nicely marked Deep-brown Darts around this year.
