Night of the Moth

Put out the moth trap on sultry Sunday night. Captured a number of Square-spotted clays (Xestia rhomboidea), a Light emerald (Campaea margaritata), several waves including a Riband (Idaea aversata), a Silky (I. dilutaria) and a Small dusky (I. seriata). There were also a number of Small fan-foots (Herminia grisealia). Bittersweet (Solanum dulcamara) had developed green berries.
