20th December 2017

It's not often I get some good moths in December but after a string of very cold nights a sudden warm spell has enticed a few out. The Satellite was new for the year and I don't often see the form with a 'filled-in' kidney mark. Also new for the year and only the 3rd garden record was Mottled Umber - I've only ever trapped this all brown form but this one posed particularly nicely for the camera.
