All the M-d J's posted here so far are from coastal counties but there are a couple of records annually in Notts most years. Here's my only D Swordgrass from Notts a few years ago, that is just about annual here.- Andy Adcock

Red-line Quaker and Common Marble Carpet was my haul. Probably going to keep going until we leave, especially during this mild spell, hoping my next tick is an Oleander Hawkmoth!- Andy Adcock

I had an Angle Shades which sat all day and night too. We have a light outside and it's not uncommon during cold spells, to see a moth remain in the same place under the light, for several days.- Andy Adcock

This year, I had 18 on 11 dates in Aug which dropped to just a single in Sept and last year in Aug, I...- Andy Adcock

You need to turn your light off, half an hour earlier, the light has to be off by the time they start to emerge for the day or it's inevitable that they will end up at your light. I got stung three times this autumn!- Andy Adcock
