Back from the Birdfair at Rutland, where we ran Jack's small Heath trap. Quite a few moths but nothing special, the only moth that I'm not catching yet was a Rosy Rustic, it should be out here soon. Last night had a good number of moths with Setaceous Hebrew Character, unusually, the most numerous. Lots of Silver Ys and Rush Veneers in keeping with the country wide influx of migrants, but sadly no biggy amongst them. One beautiful, fresh, E extimalis departed as I tried to photograph it! 290 moths of 51 species.
