Several new moths to the trap on a warm and cloudy night. A 2nd garden record of flame carpet was the highlight moth, taken around midnight, roosting on the fence I painted white next to the trap.
Also new for the year was a well marked small clouded brindle, a snout along with 2 micro moths,
Cydia pomonella (codling moth) and
Pandemis cerasana (barred fruit tree tortrix)
Others were several buff ermines, brown rustic, udea olivalis and a common swift. Hopefully, after a warm day the clouds will again roll in and another good night will ensue.
