Nothing as exciting as Adam's catch the other night but a few migrants were in the traps this morning with ~50 Diamond-back Moths, 7 Rusty-dot Pearls, 3 Dark Sword-grass, 3 Small Mottled Willows and a lone Silver Y. Resident species of note included Monochroa cytisella, Eucosma obumbratana, July Belle, Plain Pug, Brussels Lace, 8 Crescent Dart, Northern Rustic, Marbled Coronet, L-album Wainscot, and a Crescent Striped. (Hope to post a few pics later if time permits).

| Eucosma obumbratana 5th VCR |
 |
| Udea ferrugalis 914th VCR! |
 |
| Lackey - I've never seen one like this before |
 |
| Northern Rustic 'a la carton' as they always seem to start vibrating as soon as disturbed |
 |
| Crescent Striped seem to lose their scales by default, but they are quite distinctive nonetheless retaining their characteristic features. The two small white dots a little way behind the thorax are always a good starting point I find., plus it's bigger than the similar brocades. 5th VCR |
