A surprise Pale Oak Beauty at my LNR last night. Not many records for VC57 so very pleased with it!

Managed to get up close an personal with these Currant Clearwings just now! An annual breeder in my little garden, very happy to see them again #teammoth #VC57
Another less than showy showing from #teamMoth last night, but there were a couple of NFYs for me in 12C Cambs - Grey Pine Carpet and Teleiodes vulgella.
And, there was a Peppered, always nice to see. I had a peppered shirt once...near-perfect camo for those moths

Beautiful Hook-tip and Dark sword grass in the trap this morning along with a load of H+D!

Kevin found this pair of Hornet Moths (Sesia apiformis) this morning when checking our favourite Poplar tree. Can't say I'm not just a little bit jealous!

Not trapped this week due to weather, but still finding tiny migrants, despite the rain!

Another Small Mottled Willow this morning with 220 of 48 in total. 2nd record of Eastern Bordered Straw for VC57 caught down the road, so close!

127 of 44 in total. A very co-operative Privet Hawk and three figure of 80 to add to the Small Mottled Willows.
