New Moth For Us:

A fair night last night. New for us was Orange Sallow. We also had Lunar Underwing, Mottled Umber, Burnished Brass and September Thorn.

Orange Sallow, what a beauty !
Mottled Umber in September ? The flight seasons are all over the place.

Hi Bob & Helen,

Yes Mottled Umber. I was talking to someone last night and they said they had caught three or four over the last couple of weeks. So it seems that a September emergence isn't that unusual after all.
