Old Lady

This is one of 2 found in the trap in August

Swallow Prominent

A very striking moth, a few caught in late July. As you can see, they are willing to sit on the end of your finger........

Light Emerald

A peak of appearances during August, with 4 on the same night. These really do add a splash of colour!

White spotted Pinion

This is a real prize, a rare treat for the trap. In my op- Pinion, the rarest moth we've ever had.

The population of this little critter has crashed since the blight of Dutch Elm Disease, but they still cling on in local, isolated pockets.

Sallow Kitten

This little beauty was minding its own business on the trap floor!

Barred Sallow

This is one of 4 Sallow species caught in the trap in recent nights.
