Moth at rest on a sheet at night, attracted by a blacklight. Moth is vaguely iridescent beige, with chain-like markings of reddish brown. Moth is facing up. 🔝
Blacklighting again, because it is still 79 degrees F, in the front yard this time. I believe this beauty is a Bethune’s Pinion, a type of owlet moth in the family Noctuidae. #bugsky #moths #mothing #insects

Despite the full moon and a drop in temperature, we had two Early Greys in our Selsey garden trap this morning.

Finally, a moth other than LBAM! A Common Plume to get some 2026 mothing under way.

At Crystal Cove State Beach yesterday, surprised to see this female Autographa californica (aka Alfalfa looper) noctuid moth furiously nectaring on Deerweed. Only the second observation there on iNaturalist. #noctuid #moths #mothing #lepidoptera #nature

Was expecting more than just a single Chestnut last night, as it was calm and relatively mild. That's #mothing. #teammoth

Opinions on this Acleris, por favor. My money is on schalleriana, which I've had before. However, app is saying all sorts depending on the angle. Fair to say my #mothing year is up and running with a good old head scratcher. #teammoth

After a grim week with flu, I was cheered up by finding this beauty in my porch this morning. Angle Shades, Selsey VC13

Clifden Nonpareil (Catocala fraxini).
The Clifden Nonpareil is the most surprising moth I've encountered this year. The holy grail of #mothing was not something I ever imagined would be in my garden. It's difficult to appreciate this moth's size, so I wish I had taken a picture of it next to another moth. #mothmonday #macromonday #moths

Still a few moths about in north #Fife. A well-marked Mottled Umber and a male December Moth with cracking antennae from last night’s catch. #moths #mothing @mothiduk.bsky.social @nature.org @naturescot.bsky.social @scotwildlife.bsky.social

This Common Plume was in my porch this morning. They are very hardy, overwintering as adults. VC13

Oak Rustic, along with a Palpita vitrealis and a Rusty Dot Pearl kept a Eurovision humiliation at bay. VC13

November Moth agg
The #mothing didn't live up to my own hype last soir. 9/6 here in VC27, with a pair of Feathered Thorn, a Barred Sallow and this poseur of a November Moth agg the highlights. Better than not, I suppose. #teammoth

Just put the traps out with fingers crossed! Three or four bats were out already, flying around the house.
