I also took advantage of a milder night and brought my trap out of hibernation, deployed at Old Warren Hill (Nanteos). 49 moths of 16 species, most numerous were Engrailed (12) and March Moth (13), most pleasing were Oak Beauty, Brindled Beauty and Early Thorn, and most surprising was V-Pug. Also several Chestnut, two Pale Pinion and a Twin-Spot Quaker.
Nice catch Simon. Your V-Pug equals the second earliest county record.
