Maiden's Blush |
Not the best moth night ever - probably too windy and cold - with a catch of 86 moths of 20 species.
I am still getting worried about Square-spot Rustics (wondering if I am identifying them correctly), as they seem to be so variable. Some are really nicely marked, and others rather dull. They all seem to have gold-coloured eye/kidney markings though. Or I think they do...
Maiden's Blush was a garden tick, and quite nice. She's in the fridge waiting for a photo. Light Emerald was one of the prettier ones.
