Moths in Church Lane

Last night David set up his moth trap next door to Little Abington church, so this morning (1st October) we opened it up to see our visitors.



There was a reasonable selection of mostly 'little brown' moths and one or two other insects!

Thanks for Mike and Lois Bull for the tentative identifications below - all Noctuids, the largest family of moths:
