  2. While taking a breather and sipping water, I noticed a small white moth desperately fluttering to free from the spider’s silk by the trailside. It appeared that the spider wasn’t interested in it, so I used my hiking stick to set it free. The moth circled above me, and flew away to live another night. 🤍🦋✨

  6. I *think* this is a police-car moth (Gnophaela vermiculata). It’s visiting hydrangea flowers (Hydrangea paniculata ‘Quick Fire’).

  7. CW: Jersey Tiger Moth

    We have a very distinguished visitor this evening, hanging out on the window of the kitchen door.

    I'm not letting them in though.

  8. @hastingsmothman my local residents group has a moth trap that is being shared about. So far 11 people (including the local primary school) have used it.
    I presented about it with some photos and even more people have signed up to use it. So many were surprised at how beautiful the moth were.

  10. The moth trap had a bumper haul last night. Over 60 moths (hard to count them all). Probably about 12-15 species. Here are some beauties. Not identified yet.

  11. A friend in #totterdown, is establishing an urban nature reserve where people make their gardens more wildlife friendly. We are docunting local wildlife and I have been loaned a moth trap for a few days. Previous users got 60+ moths in 1 night across 13 species.
    Excited to see what I get.

  12. Found this poorly camoflaged Curve-Lined Angle, Digrammia continuata (Geometridae) sitting on our hiking trail instead of on a tree (where we likely would have missed it). #mothtodon #moths #moth #mothing #nature

    What a cool name!

  14. Salut Mastodon, après une petite pause parce que j’étais occupée à dessiner une affiche pour la pièce de théâtre d’un ami (hâte de la partager quand ce sera le moment), je reprends la liste des fées en cours de route ^^

  19. Reticulated fruitworm moth (Cenopis reticulatana). The beak-like structure that extends beyond the head is composed of the labial palpi, sensory organs that have a long list of abilities including detection of CO2. Females tend to have larger palps, and I gather that that might be because they are the ones who use CO2 to assess host plant quality during oviposition. #tortricidae #moth #moths #mothtodon #mothing #lepidoptera #insects #entomology #nature #NationalMothWeek
