Pembury, 24th May


Shoulder-striped Wainscot - a nice easy moth to ID!



Knot Grass - another rather distinctive moth.

Clouded Border - rather stunning, but a pain to photograph!

Great Prominent - Massive moth but still very lively.

Another productive evening in my dads garden...getting rather into this moth trapping lark at the moment.

Paddock Wood, May 9th 2009

Above is a Dingy Shell caught in the garden which doesn't contain much damp woodland, carr and other marshy areas from which the Waring and Townsend guide says it rarely strays away from. A good record.

Great Prominent, one of those fluffy moths that kids love to hold! Well, my kids anyway.
This is my first ever blog entry so I hope it's OK and would like to thank Josh for setting it up and allowing me access. More to follow soon.
