Still in Norfolk and though rain was forecast we decided to put out the moth trap anyway, just to see if we got anything different.  We managed to get 23 species and 50-odd individuals, depending on whether or not you include the diamond-back micros that were too numerous and quick to count.  We managed an extra 6 species that didn't turn up the night before including 3 Setaceous Hebrew Characters that for some reason didn't get photographed.

We took the moth trap out for a trip to Costessey in Norfolk to see what else we could find up there.  There was a good haul with 95 individuals of 47 species (both micro and macro).  There were a lot of diamond-back micros, though most escaped as soon as the trap was opened.

And here they are -
