Various experimental sugary lures for catching moths.
This time I remembered not to put the lid on right away.
The first time I put the mixture in a bottle, screwed the lid on tight, and went for a smoke. About an hour later, I heard a loud pop in the kitchen. I went to investigate and found that my kitchen had become a Pollock-inspired canvas in the medium of sour wine, yeast, old bananas, and dissolved sugar. It was an olfactory assault. -

28 hours is a long time away from home for a couch potato like me, but I brought a warm sleeping bag, a gas camping stove, instant coffee, and my fellow nerds supplied plenty of good company.
My social batteries got thoroughly drained, so this weekend I'm just going to putter about the house, read a book, and not talk to anyone :D#Entomology #Insects #Lepidoptera #Mothing #MothsMatter #Pollinators #MothsAndButterflies #Birding #WildlifePhotography #iBotany #Wildlife #Nature #Conservation

The weather wasn't entirely cooperative for the annual bioblitz at Søgård Mose, but it did manage a gorgeous sunrise while I was trying to extricate myself from my sleeping bag.
The bioblitz is a brilliant reward for all the hard work clearing birch and bramble during the winter season.
I managed to find 103 species, 17 of which were new to me, in between the frequent rain showers.#Entomology #Insects #Lepidoptera #Mothing #MothsMatter #Pollinators #MothsAndButterflies #WildlifePhotography #iNaturalist #Wildlife #Nature #Conservation

More moths from Soldaterskoven.
I noticed a funny thing that I made sure to mention to a fellow bat conservation colleague.
I always bring a borrowed bat detector, and for the first hours of mothing mosquitoes are eating me alive. As soon as the detector starts going of the amount of mosquitoes drop sharply. Whether it is because the bats gobble them up really fast or because the skeeters seek cover, I don't know, but it is points in favour of bats as efficient pest management.#Entomology #Insects #Lepidoptera #Mothing #MothsMatter #Pollinators #MothsAndButterflies #Bats #iNaturalist #Wildlife #Nature #Conservation

I had been looking forward to setting up the LepiLED in the grazed section of of the forest, and it definitely paid off wonderfully.
156 observations in a night and 8 species I hadn't seen before. (EDIT: I forgot to count a folder: 256 observations, 88 species, and 8 new ones)
I didn't get home until the sun was up.#Entomology #Insects #Lepidoptera #Mothing #MothsMatter #Pollinators #MothsAndButterflies

Did you know that bug zappers can be defanged and used to attract moths? I don't know how to do it safely but perhaps somebody can chime in. Proof of concept is on this webpage about a moth night event in Vermont. #MothNight #mothing #blacklight #blacklighting #moths #UV #insects #lepidoptera #inaturalist https://val.vtecostudies.org/newsfeed/val-updating-the-checklist-of-vermont-moths/

We need more articles in nature and conservation magazines about the evils of bug zappers. Americans still think they work and seem to be OK with the billions of innocent insects that are killed each year. Moth people, I'm looking at you. #BugZappers #moths #lepidoptera #insects #mothing #entomology

Mom called and asked for help setting up the pool for summer, so I packed the mothing gear and set up for a warm May night. The moths didn't disappoint. They rarely do.

I may be 400 miles from home but with the power of a new phenomenon called Internet Wiffy or 5Gees I can bring you a #MothOfTheDay from yesterday’s batch. This is
PEBBLE PROMINENT (see pebble effect on wing)
Notodonta ziczac (great #Latin)Larvae feed on sallow and poplar. Common and widespread

TONIGHT! Ain't no Party like a Moth Night Party with Sam Kieschnick, Urban Wildlife Biologist in McKinney! Step into the wild after dark! Using special UV lights, we’ll attract and observe moths and other nighttime species as part of a Mothing BioBlitz. #blacklandprairiechapter #mothing #mothsquad #SamKieschnick #TPWD #MaryAbercrombie #blacklandprairie

A visit to my mum's place always means lots of work, but it's also a good opportunity to look for insects. This time I brought the LepiLED. There was a surprisingly good turnout in the moth trap this morning.

Not really much happening on the #mothing front at the moment. There are a few species around, but I only seem to be attracting Common Quakers and Hebrew Characters ... and nothing else.
This Hebrew Character -- so called because its stigmata resembles the Hebrew Character Nun (נ) -- was a compliant little poseur this morning though.

First moth of the year and it's one I haven't seen before.
Tortricodes alternella Martsvikler
Spring Harbinger/Winter ShadeNow I am keen as mustard to go mothing again. I'll probably start digging out the gear tomorrow, and then hope for a night without downpour.
