Moth Trapping session 2 - Wednesday 21st night / Thursday 22nd morning - June 2017

Wednesday evening it had that feeling of a warm, humid night and I thought there would be a very high chance of getting a Poplar Hawk-Moth - and so I did! There was not as many in the trap compared to the night before, but there was one or two unexpected ones..things.. 

Again, all shots are just taken from the iPhone7 for reference - nothing fancy.

A few more White Ermines again. On the right an Antler Moth just below one of the Ermines.
To the left, above the second Ermine is a Heart and Dart moth.
The one above the Heart and Dart moth I'm yet to identify.

Eggs laid - the closet moth to the eggs was this Antler Moth - Cerapteryx Graminis, so I'm guessing this is who left them! The Heart and Dart was on the other side of the tray... So a bit unsure, but guessing it's most likely from the Antler.

A wild guess - a Flame Shoulder

Above - A Bordered White male - Bupalus Piniaria

Poplar Hawk-Moth male - Laothoe Populi

This one was the unexpected surprise - the Northern Eggar (female) Lasiocampa Quercus -  who also left me a few gifts or so... eggs!  Which I'll keep until they are ready for release - I will show updates of this through the Facebook & Instagram page with a link to this blog.

Again, thanks for looking and taking interest,
​Eve :)
