More moths

I think I have pinned down almost all the identities of the moths I caught last week.  Here are the rest.

Gold Spot

A rather faded Green Carpet

Straw Dot

Peppered Moth

The Gothic

Buff Arches

Double Square Spot

Bird Cherry Ermine

Double Lobed

Plain Golden Y

Riband Wave (I posted one of these last time but this one is strikingly different)

Common Rustic

Swallow Prominent

Short-cloaked Moth

Common Wainscot

And last, one of the best of the night, Burnished Brass

As before, please let me know if any of the IDs is incorrect.  This seems to me an amazing variety of moths from one night with the moth trap and is by far the best I have had.  I'll have another go while the weather holds and post any new findings.
