Species List for 10/6/2016 - National Moth Night (night two).

It is National Moth Day(s) and the focus is on Hawk-moths, and I didn't want to be left out, so I caught my first for the year, a beautiful Small Elephant Hawk-moth. Overall a bit of an improvement with more than 100 moths of 37 species. To be honest when I checked previous years I was surprised how few Elephant Hawk-moths I've caught on or before 10th June. Tomorrow might be the day, a Silver-striped would be my choice but anything would do.
