Further seasonal additions, Hollesley

Ran my traps again last night as the breeze was not as strong as forecasted and despite it being clear with a strong moon turned up the biggest catch of the year so far, mainly owing to Common Quaker. 16 species 90 moths.

Turned up the first Small Quakers (2) for this year plus a Double-striped pug, an Emmelina monodactyla, a Diurnea fagella and an Acleris kochiella which is the fourth specimen of this species taken in my garden, looks to be well established.
