Rishworth - Overnight Moths - 12/09/2020 - Its beginning to look a lot like Autumn (al) (moths)........ - Also Dusky Lemon Sallow.

 A decent night again last night with Common Marbled Carpet numbers soaring. One I was bloomin' pleased with was Small Autumnal Moth. But the time the good moth arrives... the camera has no charge.

A couple of months ago, Andy C commented on how many Elm trees there are here in Rishworth, this got me thinking, because a lot of scarcer moths feed on Elm. Now my main ambition thi Autumn, is to catch a Dusky Lemon Sallow.

And by the way, I am really pleased with the Small Autumnal Moth.
