I must admit, if it hadn't been for Sean Clancy catching a Silver-striped Hawk-moth two nights ago near Dungeness I wouldn't have put my traps out in with Storm Aileen promising a rough night. I should have followed that instinct. The find blew one of my traps over and blew a swing seat over that caused the cable to one of my traps to be ripped out of its plug. All that and just 34 moths of nine species put in an appearance.
