I've been shirking my bugly duties for #MothWeek 😥

So here's a little clearwing! These have a habit of getting into the bark of apple trees. They're pretty small, only a couple centimeter wingspan, but their clear wings make them pretty distinctive.

Tiger moths are so pretty! One species is the famous woolly bear, but their caterpillars come in all sorts of shapes and colors. (Generally quite fuzzy and of the "probably best not to touch" variety!)

I decided to start including the species, and hopefully I'll get more coloring done soon!

Another cocktail for a moth that was new to me last year.

The Nonpareil

2 parts Bottega dark chocolate liqueur
1 part Cointreau
1 part Amaro Montenegro
Garnish with blue sugar sprinkles

The moth is the Clifden Nonpareil, or Blue Underwing, and 'nonpareil' is also a word for a chocolate button covered in sugar sprinkles.

This isn't as sweet as it sounds, the Bottega isn't too sweet and the bitterness of the Amaro tempers it a bit. Indulgent but sophisticated.

Researchers uncover 10 new moth species and 7 new genera in Hawaiʻi

"Among the discoveries is Paalua leleole, a species in which the female moths appear unable to fly. Several of the new moths were named to honor Hawai’ian culture, including Iliahia lilinoe, named for Lilinoe, the goddess of mists on the Haleakalā volcano, on the island of Maui."

Hummingbird hawkmoth recorded in Liverpool in late Winter (Feb 27th)

#TeamMoth #moths #moth #lepidoptera

I ran my moth trap for the first time this year. 36 moths of 13 species; the star of the show was a long-awaited first record of The Streamer, but also notable was an Apple Leaf Miner, a full month earlier than my previous earliest record.
