Assymetric Large Ranunculus, Elton

Note the left wing is noticably shorter than the right. On the same night elsewhere in Cambridgeshire Ray caught one with the right wings shorter than the left.

Webb's Wainscot, St Neots

Small Square-spot, Cambridge, 4 September 07


A poor haul from last night's trap, but the first Small Square Spot for the garden was a most welcome surprise.

First Red Underwing of the year. Not yet in full control of the new camera, hence poor depth of field.
