One or two interesting (to me anyway) arrivals in the last few nights. A Cypress Pug on 9/10,which I sadly bumped off when catching it (pity,as this was my first one at this site). On 12/10 I had both Red- & Yellow-line Quakers and a pair of very fresh Green-brindled Crescents. Also on 12/10 there were single Orange Sallow & Lychnis (a bit late in the year). On 14/10 another late flyer, a Straw Dot and a very nice Acleris variegana f.asperana - sharply defined black and white areas - and a pair of Epirrita agg. I managed to lose a moth which I was unable to identify which was slightly larger than a Straw Dot, but grey rather than buff, but still with the obvious kidney marks, and also with two crosslines similar to a Muslin Footman. Any ideas?  I have been hoping it will turn up again, but with no success - maybe another one will come to the traps!!!
