(Almost no) moths at NCBS!

I searched for moths along the lit corridors and windows of NCBS (Bangalore) for half an hour (2130 to 2200) on 25 July 2019. It has been drizzling, and I was convinced that there would be lots of moths to photograph for National Moth Week. But instead, I was able to find, during a half-hour search, only THREE individual moths -- photos attached here. It wasn't just moths: in general there were no insects about. I saw perhaps 5-10 in total.

I wonder whether this was an anomalous night, and will check again on another night, but it's greatly worrying..
