I havent put the moth trap out since early Spring and dont usually bother after late summer, early Autumn. However keeping an eye on a facebook page for Cheshire Moths, a few folk have been trapping the wonderful Mervielle du jour species. So I though I would give it a go as it would be a lifer.
Highlights of this mornings results:
2 Mervielle du jour (Lifer), 13 Box-tree Moth (including two dark form individuals), 2 Red-green Carpet (Lifer), 2 November moth agg (Lifer), Turnip Moth, 3 Black Rustic, 3 Blairs shoulder Moth, Green-brindled Crescent, Angle Shades, 2 Pale-mottled Willow, Siver y, Pinnion-streaked Snout (Lifer).
