More Migrant Moths

Cooler wetter weather has reduced the numbers of moths on the wing in my garden but there are still a few migrants turning up. The star so far is Bordered Straw which, like Small Mottled Willow, doesn't often make it to this part of the world.

Dark Sword-grass Agrotis ipsilon


The rest are not migrants but Yellow-barred Brindle is a garden first.
