Black and Green are the Dominant Colours

Black Rustics dominated the moth scene here last night, as they did on Tuesday night, but there was more than a hint of green as well, Red-green Carpet, Green-brindled Crescent, Merveille du Jour and Brindled Green representing that colour.  Other species of interest were Pine Carpet, Willow Beauty, Brown-spot Pinion and Pale Mottled Willow.  A pristine Flame was a bit of a surprise. The stars of the show are illustrated below:
