@norfolkmoths.bsky.social Slim pickings again last night but brindled green NFY, an unspectacular pale mottled willow NFG and the 6th Clancy’s rustic this year. #teammoth #norfolkmoths

13/9 -one trap here in damp Hunstanton, 146/21. NFY Narrow-winged Grey*. Also the smallest Box Moth* we've ever seen!

Tops were 56 Beet*, 41 LYU.

Found this Otiorhynchus aurifer*, aka gold bearing weevil, on the wall last night, new to us. #teammoth #norfolkmoths

Caloptilia fidella is now in West Norfolk. It has just arrived as it wasn’t present in the summer
Note leaf roll and small white initial mine are on the same leaf
Worth checking Bedfordshire @vc30moths.bsky.social?
#norfolkmoths

I collected a couple of Phyllonorycter pastorella mines from the Weeping Willow in the garden yesterday and an adult emerged today
#norfolkmoths

Ancylosis oblitella (Saltmarsh Knothorn) is nationally scarce but there are quite a few recent Norgolk records. This is NFG after last night.

Found a Cinnamon Bug on our aubergine plant.

10/09/26. 307/36. Rain Overnight. Nothing new but a late Pale Tussock of interest. Convolvulus HM, Blackneck, Drk. Sword-grass, 6 Delicate, 3 SM Willow, 2 White-point, BL Brown-eye, Angle Shades, 5 Oak Hook-tip. Caption competition anyone?...😁 #teammoth #norfolkmoths @migrantmothuk.bsky.social

One of my favourite miners today - Bucculatrix frangulella on Buckthorn. They make purple spiral mines initially. Some are just finishing and the larvae will now window feed on the leaf. Soon the leaves will look messy with lots of translucent windows where they fed.
