Just 6 species on the evening of 25th (traps run dusk till 9.30pm). Pale Brindled Beauty the most common (26) and a few each of March Moth, Spring Usher, Chestnut, Tortricodes alternella and Agonopterix heracliana, the latter being the only new one for the year. Not yet seen a Satellite this year.

Not so many species as you but also the first Common Quaker. March moth common and saw a few when driving back from Snape where I took a strikingly marked Acleris hastiana looking very much like a rufana having a very broad pale costal third.
