I haven't posted the list for the last three days until this evening as I've been waiting to sort out the Pugs that have appeared in increasing numbers. Nigel Jarman came round, and pleasingly confirmed that the majority were, as I thought, Brindled Pugs. They are a bit variable, especially as they seem to wear quite quickly. There were several new for the year, Red-green Carpet, Lime-speck, Brindled and V Pugs, Pale Mottled Willow and Seraphim, which was also new for the site. A second Blossom Underwing was a surprise, as were the eggs it laid in the tube.
