Crescent Dart


 Crescent Dart - this localised, coastal species never turns up in numbers but it's my third or fourth from the garden trap. A couple have been so poorly-marked that I've nearly passed them off as Heart and Dart. No such problems with this one! Colder temperatures and breezy conditions meant far fewer moths last night, and no immigrant species. 

Ivy Broomrape - I saw stacks of this in Torquay today. The pale yellow 'banana' variety is a real favourite of mine, and a nice change from all the 'purples' in Exmouth.


Pyramidal Orchid. One of forty spikes on Dinan Way.
