8th May
A very good evening near darkest Trellech.
75 moths of 24 species in just a few hours or so!
Amongst the haul was Square Spot, Frosted Green, Barred Umber, Least Black Arches, Pale Feathered Bright (Incurvaria pectinea) and a now the correctly named Grey Birch.
Pictures from top to bottom are:
Barred Umber, Least Black Arches, Pale Feathered Bright and Grey Birch.
Not Small engrailed Nick. It's a Grey birch.
ReplyDeleteThank you Paul I thought something was not right.
ReplyDeleteI had never seen either Small Engrailed or Grey Birch previous to this encounter, but I've just been going through my moth and butterfly pictures this Sunday afternoon (15th) and I was coming to the same conclusion the markings are not right.
Thanks for pointing it out and putting my mind at rest.
