Further to my Thorn #moths from earlier, here are four more beautiful randoms that paid a visit to the #garden last night:
1) the woodchip mimicking PALE PROMINENT
2) the sumptuous TOADFLAX BROCADE
3) the kaleidascopic TREE LICHEN BEAUTY
4) the sanguineous BLOOD VEIN

150+ moths came to visit on a mild, cloudy, drizzly night (perfect conditions). And the theme was THORNY! Three types of Thorn here:
1) & 2) Canary-shouldered Thorn (can you guess why)?
3) Dusky Thorn
4) Early Thorn

More play on the Procreate app, learning the range of brushes, techniques, etc. Gone for photorealism this time (if wide of mark, blame presbyopia & pound store reading glasses 🤓). I'm still not quite satisfied it's finished. That's a hard decision that requires accepting it's as good as I can do
So.. here's a digital painting of the scarlet tiger moth I saw the other day

I’d love to know for sure what this extraterrestrial-like creature is. I think it’s either a white ermine or satin moth, but better lepidopterists than me might correct me. I took the poorer photo looking at the moth’s face and comb-like antennae yesterday - a difficult angle as it was sitting on the garage door. I took the other photo earlier of another example, sitting on the floor.

Always nice to have a Privet Hawk Moth buzzing like a 747 above your head. Also had Beautiful Hooktip, Heart and Club and a Snout among many others

A little disappointing last night, mainly because a fox knocked the trap (telltale scat nearby!). However, did bag some fresh looking micros (later) and these four, who are now sleeping in the shrubbery:
1) POPLAR LUTESTRING
2) RIBAND WAVE
3) CYPRESS CARPET
4) LEAST CARPET

Another tough night for moth enthusiasts. Still troublingly low numbers (too chilly and breezy at night still). Where I should be getting 20-50, today it’s just two.
A very dark Treble Lines and a Heart and Dart.
Still no geometridae to speak of.

Everything in the world seems so stressful and shitty right now, but just a little while ago, a giant silk moth (Polyphemus Moth) hopped into my hand and for a moment, the world was so pure 🥹😭😌
