Very windy last night, but not a bad haul including a first for year Centre-barred Sallow and my 2nd Old Lady. Rosy Rustics are now visiting, so it looks like the autumn moths are ready to boost my garden list total.
I don't know what this one is though, about the size of an Uncertain but the background colour is leaning towards orange.......any takers ????

My first Sallow of the year...........................
CENTRE-BARRED SALLOW
My second Old Lady and definitely not the one from the previous evening. This one was also found in the skinner trap. The books say they are not usually attracted to the lights, so I guess Bedfordshire Old Lady's can't read
