Forward to 4 June 2006 moth page, back to 6 May 2006 moth page, to general moths page.
The season has begun properly now. Around 20 moths in the trap, the bulk
being Shuttle-shaped Dart,
with only one Hebrew
Characters and one Common
Quaker. The impressive newbie was the Mullein
with its delta-shaped wings, its hawk-moth-like body and its impressive quiff
and serrated back. Other neat bodies came in the form of a Spectacle
(previously seen here), a Light Brocade
(previously seen here,
here and here), a Flame Shoulder
(previously seen here) and a Garden Carpet
(previously seen here). Finally there were two pugs -
a Mottled
Pug (previously seen here) and
a non-worn version of the Brindled Pug previously seen here.
