It`s supposed to be quite a bit warmer tonight (Sunday), so I`ll give it another go with the garden traps. The relative warmth may tempt some more moths out - the warm air is coming across the Atlantic from the West Indies, so would n`t it be absolutely amazing (but, alas, extremely unlikely) if something exotic turns up!
Jane Hand had a satellite and a red chestnut at Rhandirmwyn a couple of nights ago.

There are just 5 previous Feb records of Red Chestnut, and only two match Jane's: 17/2/1993 at Rhandirmwyn and 13/2/1993 at Cwmgwili.
