Some Moths during November

 Weather conditions during November have been very changeable as autumn moves towards winter.

The moth-trap has mainly produced late season resident species together with a few common migrants and one adventive species that is now becoming a common visitor to my garden.

(female)

Only the male has feathered antennae.

Females of this species are flightless.
