Lee Mount - 6th October

I went out into the garden just after dark - 3 moths buzzing around the Erysimum and Verbena bonariensis looking like Hummingbirds Hawkmoths - too small. 

Indoors for the camera and managed to get a single shot of one on the Verbena, wings always in motion. I came to the conclusion they were probably Silver Y's but they didn't seem to like the torch, or my presence ! I couldn't re-find them though I tried shortly afterwards but the wind had also increased so might try again tomorrow night - unless they end up in the trap in the morning !



Still a Red Admiral around the garden late morning.
