Dotted Border - Agriopis marginaria


A poor photo - 10 ft up on the wall with a zoom lens in the dark - of the first Dotted Border seen this year, Lodgefield Wood.

Flimwell 2nd February 2010

Pale Brindled Beauty - Phigalia pilosaria

Candlemas - and a mildish evening - brought a minor flurry of moth activity to exterior lights around the building. Four Satellites, a Chestnut, a Spring Usher and, settled on the end wall, seven male Pale Brindled Beauties were seen between about 5 and 6.30 pm. This evening (the 3rd) was damper and colder, and the walls mothless.
