Usual count of Chestnut moths, I think they are going to hibernate in the patch and just crawl out to feed. Only addition to my Ivy year total was a Common marbled carpet.
I too am hoping for a warm southerly before the season comes to an end. May be a long wait to trap again once winter arrives if the predictions for a really bad one are correct.

Also picked up a Dark Chestnut.

Records cut off for L-album around Southwold, I think the further inland you are the less likely to get them but not sure about this. It could be that a trapping session at North Denes, Lowestoft could find them there. I might go looking next year.
