More new moths for the year list

A successful night at the trap, with a beaded chestnut and pink barred sallow increasing the macro year list to 198 species. Also, lunar underwings, common wainscot, setaceous hebrew character, beautiful hooktip, brown spot pinions, large yellow underwing, diamond back micro and Acleris variegana.

A wander around Hadham Hall was fairly uneventful. Couple of little grebe on the irrigation lake along with 11 mallards and a tufted duck. Overhead, a cormorant, 4 skylark, 15 mixed gulls, reed bunting, linnet and pied wagtail.
Several goldcrest in the pines at the Hall were elusive and identified on call only.
