This is the quietest time of the year for my garden moths – the season starts late compared with other sites. I put the trap on last night for the first time, with modest aspirations. But no winter moths or pale brindled beauty, as I might have expected. Instead, just one moth, but an odd one – a brown plume (S. pterodactyla). Does anyone else see this species in the middle of winter?

Not heard of anyone getting that species in the winter, its well outside its normal flight period but I guess anything is possible with this mild winter we are having.
