Yet more moths

Another huge catch with more individual moths than a couple of nights ago and with those retained for identification probably about the same number of species.

Firsts included the miniscule rapid adventist, Horse Chestnut Leaf-miner. Fen Wainscot was another: odd it should fail to turn up in previous years then I get 5 in one go.
