Moth update - not so Early Grey

Warmer temperatures over the last couple of days have helped the moths, the minimum temperature last night was 10 Centigrade. Unfortunately the strong winds have not helped.
The new moths for the year are Clouded Drab, Twin-spotted Quaker and Early Grey, all about a month later than normal.
I've also got the Micro moth list moving with Agonopterix heracliana on Friday night and Acleris hyemana last night, both have featured several times on the blog previously.

Went down to Darley Bridge for the Lamprey again, at least 20 but possibly 30 today, see the updated photos below.
