    Moth Id

    Hi guys, any ideas on this fella? Photographed it on the south coast of Ireland. I did have a go at identifying it myself and came up with Agapeta zoegana. However, a mate of mine who is more experienced wasn't 100% happy with the id. Any suggestions? He reckons it may be hamana or even...

    Hi guys, I've just installed Zonealarm Firewall on my PC (Windows 98) and the unfortuante side effect is that I cannot view thumbnails , for example, in the Bird Identification forum.
