Well done Steve, I put a large actinic trap out last night without much hope of success because it was a clear moonlit night, and I wasn't wrong - nothing in it this morning. Better on Tuesday night with the MV though, a modest catch including three dark green-coloured Carpets about which I may well blog later and need you to comment! Lithophane spp (Pinions and Shoulder-knots) are puzzling me, they were reasonably frequent visitors here in my first few years of trapping but they've gone - no S-ks since 2012 and the last Pinion (a Tawny one) was in April 2015. It's nice to know that they're still around elsewhere.
