Not too much yesterday but there was one noctuid in the light trap that was a new backyard species, Melanchra pulverulenta. Thanks to Gary Anweiler for confirming the ID.
This morning there were 8 moths of 3 species in the light trap which included one new moth for the year, Papestra cristifera. There was also another Morrison's Pero. The rest were Vancouver darts (Agrotis vancouverensis) which are currently my most common backyard moth. Excluding flies and mosquitos, the bait trap continues to be empty…
