A great way to end the month!

The wind had dropped a bit Monday and I thought it worth putting out the traps. What a good decision, as my best migrant of the season turned up in the form of Palpita vitrealis in the actinic near the house. Not a rare migrant but a good one non the less, more scarce than the Convolvulus Hawk-moth which still evades me. Not much else amongst 35 species on the night except the first Meurville du Jour of the season and three Red Under-wings in one trap. Although really too windy I trapped last night too with the optimism that there might be something else good about but to no avail and just 30 species recorded including a Heart and Dart.
