Confused

We walked in the hills above Ormsaigbeg this morning in a return to what might be called 'normal' late autumn weather, with low cloud bringing spells of light rain, a southwesterly blowing, and an overnight low of.... 12C.

Add to this unusually high night-time temperature the recent sunny late October weather, and little wonder that a very confused moth - perhaps Phlogophora meticulosa, the angle shades moth - was out trying to fly....

....and several summer plants, like this campion, were attempting a second flowering of the year.
