Cwmllwyd 25 October 2016
Tuesday night was predicted to be warmer and less windy than of late, so out went the MV trap, in the garden, this time. I was rather surprised to find 62 moths in the trap this morning, although a total of 41 of them were November Moth agg.! Nevertheless, Feathered Thorn x 6 were FFYs and there were also 6 x Green-brindled Crescent, 5 x Yellow-line Quaker, 3 x Red-line Quaker and a pretty Red-green Carpet.

Glad that you trapped Steve. I had a good night last night too with the garden traps - 20+ spp including, as with you, my FFY feathered thorn. I nearly did n`t trap as I had a cold `coming on` yesterday (but it`s now thankfully abated). Will blog later today after I`ve finished various unwelcome heavy duty jobs...retirement - what`s that?!
