In an attempt to increase my year list, I put out 3 different Actinic traps. The wind had finally dropped and the temperature at dusk was a promising 12°C. However, as with most nights this year; there has been a general lack of either quantity or quality. One consolation did come in the form of a garden 1st White-point, macro #294 in my quest for 300. Otherwise, the cupboards were pretty bare. The only other new moth was a single worn Silver-ground Carpet.

Rather worn, but I'll take it........
