| Oak Eggar, Lasiocampa quercus |
I had some firsts last night on the balcony. The prize was an Oak Eggar, a magnificent 3.7cm moth which I have only prevviously seen zooming past in the field. Other notables were a Blair's Mocha, a Maiden's Blush, a Nut-Tree Tussock, a Saltmarsh Knot-horn and an Ox-tongue Conch. A total of 25 species were recorded. I still have moths from previous nights to sort out.
