Really chuffed to find this stunning Dusky-lemon Sallow in the trap this morning - a brand new one for me and a scarce and localised species to boot. Apparently the larvae feed on Wych Elm which I'm not short of here in Exmouth.
Three Pink-barred Sallow trapped last night.

Several Feathered Ranunculus trapped last night. This one was particularly well-marked. A truly gorgeous species.
Beautiful Moths Matt. Phone playing up for several days sorted now. Still plenty of Swallows heading south with Serious numbers of Meadow Pipit and Skylark over Ashford N Devon. See you at the beginning of November

Thanks Derek - the moths are particularly lovely at this time of year. Glad your phone is back on track and look forward to birding with you in November. All the best. Matt
