There were at least 85 macro moths of 27 species in the light trap on the 17th.  37 of these were “Thoughtful Apamea” moths (Apamea cogitata) which are, by far, my most common backyard moth at this time of the year.  There was one new backyard species, a Rannoch Looper (Speranza brunneata).  Unfortunately, I only managed a single photograph of this moth before it flew off. 

The new species for the year were:
