Pretty sure this is Common Rustic agg though it had me puzzled for a while though the markings around the kidney mark seem to confirm this species ! Not seen one like this before.

These are puzzlers too.... seeing the full underwing is not easy though this seems to suggest Copper Underwing rather than Svensson's (I think) - though it will have to go down as agg as there's an element of doubt without seeing all of the underwing !

Iron Prominent - straight-forward !!

July Highflyer - photo shows just enough colour but seem to be getting a few faded moths which are better left out of it rather than guess work !
