Denis paid me a visit last night for a few hours and as he left I offered him my Moth Trap to try out in his back garden, he gladly accepted the offer, so at 7.30 this morning I made my way to Westerham in the rain but was not disappointed when I got there. Below are a few of the moths that were within, some I have Id'd but I am not 100% certain of my Id's so any input would be gratefully received.

Thanks, and as I said any input is great.
Thanks to Dean and Peter for their input
the white and black spotted thing is a bird cherry ermine, the nondescript brown and black thing is a flounced rustic and the last one is a lesser broad bordered yellow underwing, dunno the other one
