Lee Mount

One for checking please…
I'm pretty sure this is another Flounced Rustic though a much darker individual than the one on 9th and 10th August. This one appeared on 20th and again briefly on 21st Aug. Thought at first it might be a Common Rustic but I'm not convinced. Forewing c16mm.
UPDATE - I managed after all to get the hind underwing of this individual so I'm satisfied now with Flounced Rustic.

Also had a Rosy Rustic on 17th but I messed up and deleted the photo's by mistake..grrrr

80 Large Yellow Underwings on 21st was a record count for here - all in the trap along with 9 Copper Underwing agg and a Centre-barred Sallow.
