Widdop Moor, June 22nd

It was a surprisingly cold night with a persistently chilling breeze and a clear, moonlit sky. Even the moths thought better of it after the first hour or so of darkness. Even so, I was happy to see three new macros species (see below) and there were a few micros to keep us guessing.




Purple Bar

True Lover's Knot

Dusky Brocade - I'm fairly confident of this one? FW 18mm

The first moth of the night was what I assume is a  Bryotropha terrella.  FW 7mm
