It's been a good year for Barred Sallow for me at home in St Helens, with 8 in the trap last night, most I've ever had together in one go also my first Feathered Thorn of the year with another Palpita vitrealis as well. #Teammoth #StHelensBirding

Red-line Quaker NFG in Dagenham last night; garden list now 248, can I get two more this year? #teammoth

Another Merveille du Jour appreciation post! 5 last night. All different sizes and colours from mint to sap green. Some have very prominent black stripes across their middle others not so prominent to no black stripe. All are very fresh and beautiful! #teammoth

A slight return to form this morning, with 42/15; the best showing in 3 weeks.

This subtly gorgeous, NFM/NFG #497 Dusky-lemon Sallow, was on the wall by the trap.

One of the rarer Sallows in the county with just 276 records. It’s new for the tetrad. 🔲

On Oct 28th last year I ran trap for 1st time in our new garden here in Axminster VC3, expecting v little. One of that night's moths was a lovely fresh Merveille du Jour...

Almost a year on, and we're back to Mervs again. Even better, a spanking NFM Autumnal Rustic on Sunday night. 😍

A warm night and moths..23sp 54moths.. A nice nfy Merveille du Jour and a good micro..Bindweed Sleeper Bedellia somnulentella.. 169 records for Cheshire but only one in 2017 and this one as adults, the rest being mines and larvae.. and a range of autumnal moths. #teammoth

Plenty of @migrantmothuk.bsky.social interest still:
8 Vestal,1 Delicate, 3 Angle Shades; also 7 White-point, 3 Turnip, 1 each Small Mottled Willow & L-album Wainscot

#teammoth

Trapping opportunities hard to come by lately, so 107 of 26 in the SW Hants garden last night very welcome).
Autumnal Rustic was NFG, but pride of place goes to Deep-brown Dart: only one previous garden record so six in a night was quite a surprise!
Merveille du Jour one of 5 other NFY.

#teammoth

Think this is a Large Wainscott trapped in my Cheshire garden overnight? Or is it a Bulrush Wainscott? 1st for garden either way #teammoth

#TeamMoth After 4 fresh Grey Shoulder-knot in a week (approaching 50% of the all-time record for the 4 VC's of Borders), and with the Mervs trickling in, may have peaked at 7 Mervs last night. 56/19 including my 3rd Pale Mottled Willow and 2nd Garden Rose Tortrix. The Ivy helps!

NFY Green-brindled Crescent and
The not-so-common here this year, Common Marbled Carpet #teammoth

November moths. Quite a difference.

A lurking Grey Shoulder-knot discovered on the wall above the patio window. Cue retrieval with stepladder and net! Such a good-looking moth, especially when as fresh as this one. @pmandrews1973.bsky.social #teammoth
