Such an attractive + distinctive moth. It's a shame National Moth Night wasn't happening this weekend instead of last when the nights were cold + relatively few moths (often single figures) were caught. Over last couple of days quite a few big hauls of moths being caught by mothers. |

My 14 moths of last weekend would likely have increased several times over if it were tonight! I will be off home after a night shift shortly to check my traps so I'm hoping for a nice catch  |

I had 2 of these in my moth trapping earlier this week. Such a vibrant colour, lovely!
