Lights deployed on three nights 18&19 Nov at home and on the 20th at Herringfleet Hills.
The 18th was the best night with 12 species at home although one of these, A. acanthadactyla was in my conservatory. Other species seen included; Scarce and Mottled Umber, Silver Y, December Moth, Feathered Thorn, Diamond-back 11, Rusty-dot Pearl 8, and Scarce Bordered Straw. The 19th only 6 species, 17 Diamond-back, 2 Silver Y. On the 20th as good mothing weather was forecast I went out to H. Hills and set out the four traps and left them from 19.00-22.30. On my return the promised breeze had not materialized nor the cloud cover. 7 moths to the four traps in 6 species! New for the Estate were Winter Moth and November Moth, the latter recorded on all three nights.
