12/10/19 - Only 14 moths of 8sp but still 1 Clancy's Rustic (are they migrants?)

Night of 12 Oct: 1 Pearly Underwing to light.

Moth trapping on 12/10/19 with 8 traps & ivy - expected much with south winds, but was too strong and too far west and too wet!, so moth numbers down and we had 6 less traps!;
