Another new 2012 moth + new micro

A wet but warm night has so far given up the 1st large ranunculus of the year (photo 1) along with a new garden record of Acleris rhombana (Rhomboid tortrix) moth number 1042. The latter escaped from the pot in the lounge and was eventually tracked down to the brass fitting of a wall light, as shown in photo 2.
Garden species list for 2012 now extended to a creditable 232. Only a few more species possible, with a chance that the warm night may bring in a couple more new ones.
