Some garden moths

Well I don't have to self isolate yet, but in these uncertain times it could happen.

At least I'll have moth trapping to fall back on. Last night I caught seven moths as follows:

Common Quaker 4
Hebrew Character 1
Clouded Drab 1  new for year (nfy)
Satellite 1 new for garden (nfg)

Although Satellite is new for the garden, it is not a lifer. I once saw one in Birmingham City Centre on the side of Selfridges.

Satellite
Clouded Drab
The name Satellite comes from the two tiny white dots next to the big white dot on the wing. You will need to zoom in to see them.
