    Moths of May

    The weather here has been terrible too. Lots of rain, wind and cold temperatures. Not much in my trap today but I found a female Emperor Moth in there, and a male Emperor had hatched during the night. I have never seen a male before, it's a lot smaller than I expected!

    Moths through the winter months

    I had my first moth of the year last night, a Chestnut. I have never seen a moth this early before, but it has been a very mild winter here, except for about 3 week in the second half of January and first half of February when it was between -5 and -12 degrees every day.

    August Moths 2011

    Saturday's catch was very good, I had three traps out and lots of sugar/wine. It was a little warmer and no wind, min temp of 14 degrees. 135 moths and 40 species came, and more on the wine. It was impressive to see two Clifden Nonpareils on one wine rag (didn't get a photo). Clifden Nonpareil...

    Anyone noticed a lack of Elephant Hawks this year?

    Low numbers of Hawk-moths here in Sweden too, only Privet Hawk-moth have had a normal year. I've seen 3, like in 2009 and 2010. Pine Hawks were very common in my garden last year and I don't think I've seen more that 3 or 4 this year, the same with Poplar. I have only found one larva of Poplar...
