Moth trap surprises

Last night the moth trap was set up again in the garden and this morning it contained many lovely  treasures  I let Mr S empty the trap and put the moths in containers while I slept for an extra hour or so, then I got up to take the photos of the more spectacular ones before releasing them all safely back into the garden.
We are still unsure of some of the identifications so if anyone thinks we have incorrectly identified some please let us know - we are still very much learners!!!!
