@marburybirds.bsky.social19/45 last night. No NFY but happy again with some beautifully marked moths. Chestnut & Dark Chestnut comparison (if I am right!), 3 Merveille du Jour, 2 Figure of 8’s, Black Rustic most numerous 13, SMW, Angle Shades, Mottled Rustic, Beaded Chestnuts, Gold Triangle & a mystery Eudonia sp #teammoth
@geoffmiller66.bsky.socialHardly surprising, given on and off rain all night and strong gusty wind, only 37 moths last night of 18 species, with new for the year a Beaded Chestnut, Brick, Brindled Flat-Body and Oak Rustic.
@mavisbickle.bsky.socialAha! The mystery is (probably) solved. A huge Holm Oak hiding in plain sight on the opposite corner to where I usually walk, just under 500 metres away from home. The Spiny Hook-tip didn’t make the hole in the acorn though…😁

@dungenessowen.bsky.socialThe Littlestone (SE Kent) garden moth traps have been really poor the last few days
Cypress Carpet was new for the year and now taking pics of a Pale-backed Detritus Moth (Monopis crocicapitella) - which about sums it up perfectly…
@cliveaderbys.bsky.socialNo trapping last night,but a nfy Epirrita agg on the toilet wall at Carsi 🙂
3 Whooper Swans, 3 Ruff, 12+ Pintail, 2 Garganey, Common Scoter and 1,400 Redwing through. #TeamMoth #Derbyshirebirds
@mavisbickle.bsky.socialA surprising 29 of 11 species considering the pants weather but my Merv fomo was strong… still no Merv 😓 but 8 Black Rustics is a record, Angle Shades was nice to see and the twins - Agrochola lota and macilenta, were NFY #teammoth

@wheatersdave.bsky.social77/24 in SE Hants. Undoubted star moth was a White Speck, one from my most wanted list, having only previously trapped one on Guernsey. Golden Twin-spot, Blair’s and Grey Shoulder, MdJ best of the rest #teammoth #migrantmothuk

@mundfordmoths.bsky.social21/8 here in Mundford VC28 overnight with Blair's Shoulder-knot nfy #teammoth #norfolkmoths
@ruthnewby.bsky.socialI found this Phyllonorycter mine on a Field Maple planted as a street tree. It looks a lot like P. johannisi, though I know this is not usually found on Field Maple. Any thoughts @vc28nature.bsky.social? #teammoth
@djrlincsbirder.bsky.socialA few nice ones from last night.
Green-brindled Crescent. Chestnut. Red-line Quaker. Red-green Carpet. #Teammoth
@wildtara.bsky.socialJust a couple of Black Rustic moths and a worn LYU to the moth trap. A wet and windy night so not surprised! #TeamMoth
@sciencebase.comMerveille du Jour (Marvel of the Day, although interestingly some moth-ers go Germanic and "Wonder of the Day" as if we don't have the word "marvel", hahahah), it was one of 9 species, just 23 moths to the UV #teamMoth
@sciencebase.comGuess who's back...Merv is back #teamMoth #mothsMatter
