Finishing line still a good way off

Still plodding on with the moth trap providing most of  the new species at the moment.  61 species in the trap last night but more surprisingly was that there were 2 new for the garden, Grey Mountain Moth & Epermenia chaerophyllella, the latter a lifer for me. Those put me on 711 but still a long way to go to the finishing line.
