Checking the ID's on the moths we had for the evening at Rons trap. I don't have a full list as yet, but I know an early favorite was Grass Rivulet, a local species.

Getting set and ready for moth mania, as it turned out the wind died down to nothing and the night was quite successful considering the weather we had in the week.
