December Moth
Success! 🎉 6:3 from last night’s moth trap with two December moths the highlight; new for my garden. Also LBAM (no surprise there) & a Blair’s Shoulder-Knot. The question is now, do I continue or put the trap away until next year? 🤔 #teammoth #decembermoth
Like a small bear with antennae and wings!
December moths, Poecilocampa populi, appear already in October, at least here.
