Dingy Footman - an expected garden first considering the recent upturn in footmen fortunes and especially considering the burgeoning local population at Narborough Bog.
White Satin, another garden first - photo for the record but it's not pretty!
Knackered female Oak Eggar - first garden record since 2003. This is a scarce species in VC55, though my garden has probably more records in the last 8 years than any other site in the county!
Gold Triangle
Bi-laterally asymmetric Marbled Beauty photographed in fully even light - the markings are symmetric but the colouration is completely washed out on the left forewing; it is not any more worn or rubbed than the right.
