    Late July

    Fabulous website Brian - only seen the link page so far but Bedstraw Hawk-moth pics fantastic. Will be back to check out the rest. Jen

    Late July

    Lasiocampa quercus emerges. Well, here she is. After all the rain and wind (not a moth in sight!) it was a lovely thing to watch. Jen :bounce:

    2 Year Records and Pics from France

    Cheers Andy and Colin, The Passenger was one of the first I saw here - that and an Emperor made me start recording last year and took me away from the birds a lot tho I still try and get to the reserves once a month. The Blue Underwing clinched it and was the last straw with 'window trapping'...

    You're absolutely right Brian - I've found a very similar Esperia sulphurella and will keep looking. Many thanks Jen

    Hello Nerine and Ken - that's good :-) Re IDs - I always start with Leps.it. Most of the moths I get here are shared with the Channel Islands and the South of the UK. Then I usually give up and ask the experts here! Jen

    2 Year Records and Pics from France

    Oops - thanks Ken - I only did those this morning and have added them to Notodontidae instead of starting a new Noctuid page. I blame it on the 2am rush outside in a thunder storm to save the (so far uncovered) moth trap and washing! That and the fact that I'm a bit daft! Ken, can you see...

    Yep - my puter makes the larger ones screen size after they've loaded and I don't know how to stop it. Ah well - if anyone is interested enough they can copy them and look on Adobe or whatever. :-)

    2 Year Records and Pics from France

    Afternoon, I've been here 2 years as of mid July and thought I'd stick my records on for anyone who's interested. These pics are what I use to see if I've had a moth before - saves a lot of time ID'ing. I only started running a trap at the beginning of this year so the first year's were moths...

    Diver ID Please

    Hello, This was fished out of a friend's pool this am. I've looked around a bit and can only find the Great Diving Beetle but this is different - it was around 30mm. Any ideas? Many thanks Jen :h?:

    Another Micro.... Just as I get the micro file cleared, here's another one. I've been through every single micro on UKMoths and have gone bog eyed! Any ideas? Jen :D

    I've found the 3rd on UKMoths - Esperia oliviella - pic taken again in France. Jen

    Lackeys

    Lol. Probably all Lakeys then since I'm surrounded by woodland. This was last night's - probably just looked different as it's a bit darker. Jen :flowers:

    Lackeys

    Morning, I had a lot of Lackeys recently but have only just realised how similar they are to the Ground Lackey. How do I tell the difference? Jen :h?:

    Just the same Coolpix4500 Ken - it's a pig to focus sometimes but I've had lots of practice getting it to focus on my hand and then moving it to the moth. The Guernsey was out of the fridge and very quiet - unlike a lot of moths recently! I've had a couple of Oraches and will have to see how...

    Certainly is Steve - many thanks. Looks like it's just gone onto UK Moths. Quite a few of those Caloptilias - it was very brightly coloured like robustella - it's a shame it didn't hang around longer for more pictures. Jen :-)

    Hello, When I found this green moth in the trap I thought an ID would be easy but I'm stumped. The nearest I can get is Green Arches - they seem very variable but I can't find any pics with the white lines. The second I have as Caloptilia robustella or alchimiella - is there a way to tell...

    Grasshopper ID?

    I think it's Bow-winged grasshopper (Chorthippus biguttulus). Jen :-)
