Species List for 5/6/2015

Fewer moths than yesterday, 45 of 26 species, but some real quality. A striped haw moth was only the second I've caught, the last was on 30/6/2012. Four Bordered Straws in one night is exceptional, making this the third best year have had for this species, after just one catch!
