There sure is.

No problem at all. I have some observations I've written down somewhere that might be helpful, like flight times and reaction to the lure itself.

Sorry missed this. What were we talking about? Bluesky won't allow me to view messages, something to do with wanting to see my face for age verification ๐Ÿ™ƒ

It most certainly should at some point. It's uncommon but quite widespread I've found on my travels.

Yes. Lead-coloured are morelike a Common Quaker, rounded edge to forewing and not squared-off like Clouded.

Probably what I did with the Parallel Lines! I've never scrabbled so quickly with a pot.

Indeed it is. Other characters are wrong for Dark that's for sure.

That is 100% Lunar Yellow Underwing. I am in a a bit of a Hotspot for this species in my garden and am still getting them now. It helps to see the species regularly to aid helping others. The little black mark at the base of the leading edge is diagnostic ๐Ÿ‘

Not Red-headed Chestnut, that's a bigger moth and has different markings along the sub-terminal line, and in the kidney marks.

It's a lovely form of Chestnut, not Dark Chestnut.

Ade, this is Eudonia angustea. A little late for incorrectly suggested ambigualis, but it's not out of the question. We have a few early September records.
