These warmer evenings with occasional rain fall have been very productive for the Obs moth trap. Migrants include White Point and Diamond Back Moths and good numbers of commoner species. Here's a random selection of this week's catch.
Grass Rivulet
Scorched Carpet - less than annual
Waved Umber- been a wave of them recently
White Point- a migrant moth- had them most evenings this week
Ephestia unicolorella- a influx of these this week too
Eudonia pallida
Scoparia pyralella, Also had Eudonia angustea this week.
Sitochroa verticalis
Not sure- Homoeosoma sinuella?
Blood-vein
Willow Beauty
