Moths from Georgia (1 Viewer)

I visited Georgia last month for raptor migration and found a number of moths. A selection attached that I haven't identified yet. The first two were at Saghalvasho, the third from Chorokhi Delta area and the last two from Mtirala Forest.

Any ideas please?

I'll take a stab at Common Heath (Ematurga atomaria) for #3. Pass on the others.

I'd love to go to Georgia - what was it like?

Cheers

Thanks for the replies. I did wonder if it was Common Heath though couldn't find an image that matched that patterning.

For the one that looks like Mottled Beauty my mate who also photo'd it sent to someone with a lot of experience and he doesn't know it.

Georgia itself was fantastic, totally blown away by the amount of raptors we saw. Might put a bit of a trip report up sometime.
