Wondering if "we were busy marvelling at the contents of our moth trap" would be accepted as a valid reason for the kids to be late to school? 🤔🫣😅

✨ Moth magic this morning! ✨
Four stunning Swallow-tailed Moths in the trap - and plenty more fluttering around at dawn. This was my first moth trap but I'm guessing it's peak season for these elegant summer visitors.

Some from last week in my urban Chester garden. Barred Yellow always nice to see, a striking moth as is the crowd pleaser, Elephant Hawk-moth. Willow Leafcone and Long-winged Pearl were new for the garden. @recordlrc.bsky.social #lepidoptera #mothsmatter #gardenwildlife #mothtrapping

March Moth
Just checked the trap before by bed, and spotted the March Moth on the outside. Some others inside, but couldn't get a good shot. We shall see what the morning brings. #Moths #MothTrapping #Mothtastic

We have #Moths 3 in the trap this morning. Common Quaker, Hebrew Character, Satellite. #MothTrapping
It was a much warmer night, initially foggy but that cleared and a clear night.

Inspiring @ntlmuseumsscot.bsky.social online session on ‘Enhancing #Biodiversity in Museums’ this afternoon - with a case study by @ashwhiffin.bsky.social ranging from #mothtrapping to #NoMowMay. Some things we do at @thebaytrust.bsky.social but ideas for a few new initiatives too :-)

Storm Bert and a freezing week in Norfolk meant no #mothtrapping for me this week. So, here are a couple from earlier in the year. Couldn't quite work out how to twirl the Dewick's round 😁.

Trudging through the mud to service the River Mole trail cameras and totally wasn't expecting to come across this Crimson Speckled moth! Apparently an influx of these being seen especially around the coast, seems like a good year for them #BiodiversityGatwick #mothtrapping

Final #mothtrapping of the year at Brockley Wood. New spp to me were Green Brindled Crescent, Satellite & Brindled Green. The Hornets snaffling the Dusky Thorn were not my favourites. Good species diversity this year but low numbers overall @HorshamWildlife #BiodiversityGatwick
