New moth sheet location

This summer I moved my moth sheet from the wall of the house, where it was facing the garden and native forest ca. 100 m beyond, to the wall of a shed facing and in close proximity to two types of native forest (EVC) - Swampy Riparian Woodland (Mtn Swamp Gum, Blackwood, Vic Blue Gum, Common Cassinia, Austral Bracken) and Herb-rich Foothill Forest (Narrow-leaved peppermint, Manna Gum, Silver Wattle, Common Cassinia, Austral Bracken). This has resulted in many new moth species observations and quite a few species being less encountered. However, it's also a La Nina year whit mild temps and up until new year is was quite wet and humid.
