Ruby Tiger
Spruce Carpet
Bright-line Brown-eye



National moth night tonight so I spent 3/4 enjoyable hours in Chicksands Wood with the VC30 Moth Group. On my return I found that there was activity around the traps. Spruce Carpet was my 4th pine species to date and the B-l B-e was a 2nd record this year. But even though they're common, my favourite garden moth of the night has to be the Ruby Tiger!-

Earlier, at The Lodge, a morning walk produced a few Brown Silver-lines around the bracken. We did manage to trap 1 in a specimen pot but the photo was fairly poor through the plastic.......
