We had a single Pale Brindled Beauty at Marbury CP in late November!! Almost wish I'd put the trap back on the last couple of nights

I always thought that this species emerged in the New Year, although I don't often trap at this time of year so I may well be missing it. A quick look back at the records shows a few previously in December as well as November captures in Altrincham and Burwardsley.
