The photos are not great but I will do my best here.

1. The first one on the low left is a Clouded-bordered Brindle Apamea crenate

2. Scalloped Hazel Odontopera bidentata

3. Could be The Engrailled Ectropis bistortata flight time is about right other similar species fly a bit later. Its badly worn so can say for sure and picture is not that clear.

4. I think this is the Treble Lines Charanyca trigrammica

5. I think Sweet Gale moth Acronicta cinerea

2 I think Peribatodes rhomboidaria

Peter I looked at it and thought the same as you but the flight time in the UK is much later (June) But it could be an early one!

The last winters have become warmer and shorter.
You cannot say that is every year the same.
The butterflies and moths hatches more earlier
