I think this is a Waved Umber #moth in the trap this morning, confirmation or otherwise welcome. Seems a bit late in the season

Went to try and see Purple Emperor, came away with Dark Crimson Underwing, Dusky Sallow & a Sulphur Pearl. All new for me...no Emperor mind, but no need to mention that.

Another in an occasional series of videos, where wildlife doesn't do much. This time featuring a slightly annoyed Lesser-stag Beetle, who objected to me trying to move him from the road
