Some dry nights at last. Moth-trapping in garden with 15watt actinic lamp over Skinner trap. Catches (40-50 species) included:

12/07/07
Bird's-wing
Dot moth
Short-cloaked moth
Marbled beauty
knot grass
Elephant Hawk
Buff tip
Green Pug
Smoky wainscot
Small Rivulet
Scarce Footman
Double Square-spot

17/07/07
Privet Hawk
Elephant hawk
Grey/dark dagger
Brimstone
lesser yellow underwing
Leopard moth
Clay

Would be good to see some summary results of other mothers around the county to see what's being caught and what to look out for.
Cheers
Brian
