Moths Update


We have had some good moths over the past couple of months with my getting a trap for my garden so we have been trapping nearly every night either in my Garden or at Dave's.
Have had quite a lot of lifers and also some new ones for Dave, also have had a few new moths when we have been out and about.
Also have had some nice micro moths :) I just love moths so much every day I just can't wait for dark so I can put Trap on lol
There all so beautiful I think mine and Dave's highlight is Red-tipped Clearwing which we had when we were at Glapthorn cow Pastures, Northants whilst photographing the amazing Black Hairstreaks Dave said Red- tipped Clearwing !!! It didn't register at first then I realised what he had said and couldn't believe what we were seeing to just have one come to us like that is amazing and we both managed to get a photo which is a bonus such a stunning moth, I had being to see a clearwing so glad Dave has amazing eyesight lol :)
