They are fabulous birds...intelligent and feisty, great migrants and fun to watch 😁

Easington Moths.. 2 Merveille du Jours this morning, a dull one and an absolute stunner... even the markings differed between them..with black arrowheads along the fringe on the termen...They might not be rare, but if they were, I'd twitch one defo 🤩 😁 #teammoth #merveilledujour

Fabulous 😁

Only humans can be stupid....and a lot of other negative things... but not birds.. Birds can never be stupid in the way you are using the word..😑

Yes, a really top-notch idea, Dave. I've done it extensively with a foreign bird field guide and it's really useful. I've added odd notes to my moth guides but nothing like yours. I'm just glad you can understand them! 😁

Easington Moths.. a night of heavy rain associated with ex-Hurricane Gabrielle over Biscay. Migrants are trickling in. Largest single night count of Dark Sword-grass,12, Delicate, White-point, Silver Ys and Turnips. Best of a lifer, possibly a migrant (No elms), a superb Dusky-lemon Sallow #teammoth

Congrats on the new moth 😁

Easington Moths Aug27th.. 779 moths, 513 of which were LYU, SHC & CWainscot. But 17 Beet Moths were the first since the influx of Sep 2022 when they were new for Yorkshire. Also D Sword-grass, a Rusty-dot Pearl and the first Small Mottled Willow of the autumn. Also another Archer's Dart 😁 #teammoth
