Lee Mount 26th/27th September

A new one for here last night and still here this morning - Red-line Quaker and also a Green Carpet. Not had many 'carpet sp' all year so this was very nice for a change, though looking a little worn.
1 Silver Y was nectering last night on the Buddleia as well, nice to see in the torch-light.

I have noticed a lack of carpets this year as well. I've only seen one garden carpet, on the 13th of Aug. I usually get quite a few. With the warm weather, I'd have expected a lot more. The same with Small Tortoiseshells. I wonder what's going on?
