Rye Harbour Moths
A good morning for the Lime Kiln Cottage moth trap, with over 50 species and several hundred individuals present. The commonest species were Dark Arches, Heart & Dart and Small Elephant Hawk moth, while rarities included the micro moth Synaphe punctalis, White Colon and Star-wort. Also present were Swallow-tailed Moth and Burnished Brass, two rather striking (and photogenic) species!
