After seeing none 3 days ago, this evening orthosis were abundant. Common Quaker, Small Quaker, Clouded Drab, Hebrew Character and Twin-spot Quaker were all added to the 2017 list this evening.
The weather was ideal with thick cloud keeping the moon hidden and the temperature around 9 deg. Most abundant moth was March Moth (37) with a few Dotted Border and T alternella still around. Other new ones for the year were Shoulder Stripe (2), Engrailed (6), Yellow Horned (13) and A. herecliana (2) with Chestnut and A cristana making up 13 species for the evening and over 100 moths counted. Traps were all packed up by 9.30.
