The most productive night of the year with another new species for the site, a Barred Tooth-striped. A gentle to moderate breeze (force 3-4) move from SE to E overnight with the temperature remaining just above 10 deg C. 169 moths of 25 (six micro and 19 macro)species was a surprise with several species quite early. Hopefully some photos to follow, when the light improves.
