An attractive Pearly Underwing - Peridroma saucia was also my first of the spring! - moth-trapping at CIMA, Tarifa, Cadiz Province, Andalucia, Spain on the 12th of March 2026.
6 Diamond-back Moths - Plutella xylostella was an increase of another common migrant species. - moth-trapping at CIMA, Tarifa, Cadiz Province, Andalucia, Spain on the 12th of March 2026.
At last! All of my moth books arrived today at CIMA! They should have arrived 10 days ago! But thanks to my van breakdown, they have been living in the garage in my van!! It is almost like my holiday is about to start now - 10 days late! - moth-trapping at CIMA, Tarifa, Cadiz Province, Andalucia, Spain on the 12th of March 2026.
Moth trapping at CIMA, Tarifa, Cadiz Province, Andalucia, Spain on the 12th of March 2026, Numbers up slightly to 89 moths of 33 species, with a trickle of commoner migrants. - see alt button for photos #teammoth #spanishmoths www.facebook.com/permalink.ph...

Oak Beauty on wood
3 Early Greys and a Grey Shoulder-knot on wood
Grey Shoulder-knot on wood
3 Early Greys on wood
Frost on the car but some beautiful and hardy moths braved the weather in Marbury: 6/15. Highlight again was this Oak Beauty. Also lots of grey with 3 Early Greys and a Grey Shoulder-knot. I used to get the 2 mixed up embarrassingly! My attention to detail has needed some working on! #teammoth

Given rain in the early part of the night followed by clear skies and temperatures down to 1.2C I wasn't surprised at the very quiet trap for @gardenmothscheme.bsky.social VC61 last night.
Hebrew Character (2), Common Quaker and mustn't grumble at a NFY Pale Pinion #TeamMoth

Brachionycha nubeculosa on a stick
Semioscopis oculella on a leave
Starting with few new mothing spots in 2026 in Brandenburg. Already some nice results as this Semioscopis oculella Vorfrühlings-Breitflügelfalter and several Brachionycha nubeculosa Frühlings-Rauhaareule, both not very common here. #teammoth, #moth

With temperatures dropping to freezing in VC20, I suspect many didn't turn their lights on last night? 27:5 macros made their way into my garden including this Blossom Underwing, 3rd garden record in 24 years-the other 2 were in 2020! #teammoth It was in the greenhouse, & assumed initially Small Q!

Burdock Seedhead Moth
Mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the cutest moth of all? No?! Me? Little old Burdock Seedhead Moth? You’re so kind. I’m just a tiny little moth, new to NA and happy to eat all your prickly burdock seeds. Is it my fault if little makes you cuter?

Turnip Moth (Agrotis segetum).
A Turnip Moth for #MothFaceFriday. I didn't like the antennae on either of these shots, so they didn't make the cut last year. #teammoth

The very attractive and different shaped Toulgoetia cauteriata - moth-trapping at CIMA, Tarifa, Cadiz Province, Andalucia, Spain on the 11th of March 2026. It is a spring flying moth and I usually see 20 to 50 per year. However, something different happened in 2023 when I saw 145, nearly half of all the ones I have seen!)
And it is not just about the moths - here is my butterfly of the day! - a Speckled Wood - Pararge aegeria aegeria which is much brighter coloured than the subspecies found in Britain and Northern Europe! - moth-trapping at CIMA, Tarifa, Cadiz Province, Andalucia, Spain on the 11th of March 2026.
Another view from Tarifa at night - an attractive small church in a small courtyard. - moth-trapping at CIMA, Tarifa, Cadiz Province, Andalucia, Spain on the 11th of March 2026.
Part 2 - Moth trapping at CIMA, Tarifa, Cadiz Province, Andalucia, Spain on the 11th of March 2026, moth numbers going back up to 68 moths of 33 species, including Toulgoetia cauteriata & Speckled Wood butterfly - see alt button for photos #teammoth #spanishmoths www.facebook.com/permalink.ph...
