I rarely trap on weekdays due to college the next day but on Wednesday evening I decided to leave the trap out over night.
This Streamer was a nice catch - a great looking moth.
...and this Chestnut
...and finally this Clouded Drab were the highlights.

Broom-tip and Shoulder Stripe
'This Broom-tip was trapped at Biddenden on 24 April 2008. Classified as Nationally Scarce B it was a little unexpected. It had probably wandered from nearby Hemsted Forest - the nearest heath type habitat.'
'A regular moth at Biddenden and Sissinghurst during March and April.' Thanks to Steve Broyd for the images.
