Two quite different Merveilles du Jour this morning, one minty fresh and the other blackened and yellowed with age... #teammoth #salopmoths

Back to oddly warm nights, and 64/18 in the mothtrap including 5 Vestals, 4 Figure-of-8s, 3 Mervs, 2 SMWs and a battered Pearly Underwing that still managed to get away from me! #teammoth #salopmoths

...down at the pink Vestal club... 💗
Of an amazing 10 Vestals this morning, 7 were deep pinks, maybe born in the garden?! The other surprise amongst 88/23 was this apparent July Belle! In October. Unless anyone has any more autumnal suggestions?! #teammoth #salopmoths @migrantmothuk.bsky.social

Two county rares amongst a catch of 72/15 was a good result from a cloudy night at #salopobs. Scarce Bordered Straw and Delicate, both lovely moths and immaculate #teammoth #salopmoths @migrantmothuk.bsky.social

Vestals have taken on the baton from SMWs in terms of daily occurrence in the #salopobs mothtrap, although there were two of each today in the sea of Lunar Underwings #salopmoths #teammoth

A Delicate (our 3rd, Shropshire's ~8th) was this morning's highlight amongst a sea of 126 Lunar Underwings and the first SMW for a while #salopmoths #teammoth #vc40

Pearly Underwing amongst the brown this morning. Still less than annual in Shropshire according to West Mids Moths #teammoth #salopmoths #vc40

The pink theme continued with another 6 Vestals 💖 this morning, and Small Mottled Willows passed 550 for the year 🤯 #salopmoths #teammoth #vc40 #notthesouthcoast

Unless anyone tells me otherwise, this hefty micro appears to be a Great Fungus Moth (Morophaga choragella), c5th for Shropshire! Two county rares next to each other last night (amongst 255/28 in two traps) #teammoth #salopmoths @migrantmothuk.bsky.social

Feels good and mothy out there and the new LED trap is currently buzzing. What appears to be Shropshire's 3rd Buttoned Snout has already found it, which is nice #teammoth #salopmoths #vc40

A Buttoned Snout on the house wall, the third for the county according to West Mids Moths, following others in 1908 and 2002! Fluffed potting it though...
