Reddish Light Arches in Burry Port

 A small trap of 51 individuals of 24 species included two Reddish Light Arches, which I have had before and I presume is blown to me across the Burry Inlet by kindly southern breezes.

I also had a first for the garden, which after a bit of research, I decided were Rivulet. I have had Small Rivulet before, but it's taken over ten years to attract its larger cousin.

These are two different moths, the lower being reluctant to pose on the slate.

    It`s quite possible that the reddish light arches is resident at Pembrey Burrows as well as known sites on Gower. I`ve never caught one (but I`d like to!). Well done.
