Species List for 28/9/2019

The near gale force wind and persistent rain made it a surprise when I found any moths in my traps. There were 58 moths of 12 species, including the ninth Scarce Bordered Straw for the year. I have heard it said that Angle Shades at his time might be migrants, but I don't have any way of knowing.
