Autumn continues......

Recently I have been catching some great moths in my trap, and these two are no exception! 
Introducing the Quakers , the moth on the left is a Yellow-line quaker Agrochola mecilenta, it is well distributed through the UK especially in the south, and flies between September and November and feeds on flowers at night and also comes to light. It is another new 'lifer' for me. 
The moth on the right is a Red-line quaker Agrochola lota, it is reasonably common in the UK south of Scotland and like the previous species comes readily to light.
Although I have caught this species before , (and blipped it) it is always great to be able to show the two species together.
