Species List for 26/08/2020

With the wind gusting up to 58 mph, well past the blow the moth traps to bits force, I didn't moth on the 26th. Last night was surprisingly calm and quite warm.  648 moths of 54 species with Setaceous Hebrew Character numbers dominating. Two NFY were both interesting, a Centre-barred Sallow was the earliest I've caught here and an Obscure Wainscot, my fourth was on an exceptionally late date.
