A fair night with a good example of the scarce migrant Cydia amplana. Total 207 moths of 57 species. I rested the female Oak Eggar on a shrub on our back porch and later was amazed to see a male flying round the area in sunlight about an hour later. He didn't take long to find her and within an hour she had produced a good "clutch" of eggs. Any advice on how to bring these through would be appreciated. I've included a NFS tag on the Cnephasia longana, although I have caught two or three before and had them identified on UKmoths a few days ago.For some reason if I now make changes on an old post on blogger, I loose
all the table formatting which is a considerable nuisance. As they weren't included in the daily list then. I've now put that right as I caught one last night.
