The first is one of the Scoparias - a group that I always find difficult but I'd guess at Eudonia angustea. The second is Endotricha flammealis.

David,
Are you sure the second moth isn't a Double-striped Pug ( Gymnoscelis rufifasciata)? Eudonia angustea looks a good bet for the first one.  |

Hi
I've had a closer look at the markings and I'm still going with Double Striped Pug.
With the posture , I think it has a lot to do with it being placed on graph paper.
