A second Rannoch Looper was captured by Peter Tennant on the fifth of June. 2009 is going down as a mega year for new species for Somerset. May it continue well into the autumn. I finally processed a good photograph of Cloaked Carpet caught at Hurlestone. The ones I get in my garden on infrequent occasions are invariably brown but these from Hurlestone were mint fresh and have a lovely green sheen to the scales.

I also include a photograph of Ian's recently caught Small Mottled Willow.
