Chocolate-tip

Only my second ever garden record of Chocolate-tip, the first was in April 2011. Still generally too cold at night for decent moth catches.

Added Spotted Flycatcher, a pair at Rowsley, Garden Warbler at Stanton and Grasshopper Warbler on Beeley so there are not many migrant birds unaccounted for now.

Chocolate-tip

First major rarity - Chocolate-tip

Added Brimstone and Chocolate-tip from the trap at home last night. The Chocolate-tip is a major rarity in Derbyshire, looking on the National Biodiversity Network plus the Derbyshire & Notts Entomological reports there may have been odd records in the south of the county but that's all.
Didn't catch much else, Oak-tree Pug 2 , Common pug 2, Brindled Pug 5, Pale Tussock 1, Bright-line Brown-eye 1, Common Quaker 1.
