Yes Julia
They are abundant at the moment.
I counted 297 across two traps yesterday morning.
The second one could also be Blastobasis adustella, although it does appear rather short winged

Steve

Looks like the second one might have had a close shave with some predator! (Matching bite marks on each wing?)
Cheers
Paul
