Rubia
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes
Last night had promise on the Met Office app, warm and cloudy, but in reality was clear and cold. 87 moths of 23 species, but it was the usual stuff with nothing new. It started moderately but got slower and slower as time passed. 24 Common Footman, 16 Garden Grass-veneer and 8 Riband Wave. Dusky Sallow, Peppered Moth, Fern and Swallowtail the only attractive ones. Very disappointing. For July the weather seems dreadful.
A pleasing new moth for me was Foresters; one I've wanted to see; spotted by a mate at Elveden, Suffolk by A11 while doing some casual botany.
