Warm days with warm nights

Still no rain here in East Cambs, we desperately need some now!

I'm getting a little behind and probably won't catch up now.

This was a catch from Monday night which included many new species for the year.

Personal highlights were year firsts of Tawny Wave, Pine Hawk-moth, Marbled Coronet & Exoteleia dodecella.

A really fresh and orange-hued Lesser Yellow Underwing was nice to see and a little earlier than I would expect.

 

Even better was that there were two new micros for the garden.

Only new for year species listed below.

Moth garden list for 2023 stands at 268 species
