@dustcircle I am not sure you or the author intended to mislead, but for fair balance, of the TENS OF THOUSANDS of #moth species worldwide the larvae of only TWO species, Tinea pellionella and Tineola bisselliella, eat fabric. The rest, including ALL the moths pictured, do not. Avoiding a tineola infestation is important ... but factual accuracy is important too. #MothsMatter #entomology #nature #wildife #lepidoptera

A Red-tailed Hawk landed in front of us as we were walking in Forest Park and gave us a stern look as if to warn us not to pass. We continued on our path without incident.

#SuperbOwl A Northern Pygmy owl from this winter, and a Great Grey owl from last spring- the latter being a special out of range treat for us in #NelsonBC. Superb Owl Sunday rules!

Today's view of the Snow Bunting made up for the miss (see earlier post) yesterday before I undertook an Hen harrier roost survey for the RSPB. Good to see @BradyLavis
No ice cream though.https://youtu.be/EWBOF1zh4k8?si=UPevo8kvCLW0mB-2

This morning's view out my window was a group of Golden-crowned Kinglets. It is a chilly morning, just below freezing, but the bird activity around the house is the best I have seen in the last couple of weeks.

When I am working in the Catskills, I have a view out the sliding glass doors out to the deck from my computer. This often gives me a good opportunity to see birds out of the corner of my eye, which is always welcome.
Today it was a Brown Creeper with its tongue sticking out, backlit by sunlit fall leaves. My camera was not prepared, so the focus could be better, but the colors are great.

Pretty quiet on the mothing front last night. Almost full moon, clear and slightly cooler night meant less action (... or maybe more action if you saw my previous Sex Lives of a Cabbage Moth post! 😮 )
Just a handful in the box this morning, but these included four beauties:
1) BLACK ARCHES
2) MARBLED BEAUTY
3) MARBLED GREEN
4) DOUBLE-STRIPED PUG#moths #mothing #lepidoptera #entomology #insects #nature #NaturePhotography #naturalworld #wildife #wildlifephotography #garden #altext

I've been reading Ben Goldfarb's excellent road ecology book Crossings. While walking back from the library with it I passed this Eastern Gartersnake who had fallen victim to a vehicle, which is absolutely a coincidence I could have done without.

As well as larger macro moths, there are thousands of micro moths, some barely perceptible to the eye. Four micros from today's moth box include:
1) yponomeuta evonymella (Bird-cherry ermine) [Top Left]
2) argyresthia brockeella (Gold W) [TR]
3) digitivalva pulicariae (Fleabane Smudge) [BL]
4) caloptilia rufipennella (Rufous Stilt or Small Red Slender) [BR]#moths #MothsMatter #nature #wildife #wildlifephotography #conservation #lepidoptera #entomology #alttext

Professional wildlife photographers .... don't you get at me. I am not a photographer myself, I am not blessed with a massive zoom or impressive tripod. But it's not what you've got, it's what you do with it that counts - and I did it from distance with my little snapper poking out the bathroom window! A photo of a Great Spotted Woodpecker ... a rare but welcome visitor to our garden birdfeeder.

Bright green spider (family Thomisidae?) in Temburong District, #Brunei. #Borneo #wildife #spiders #biodiversity

Not bad numerically last night, but diversity was poor. Lots of Hearts & Darts and Flame Shoulders. First sighting in 2024 of:
1) Beautiful Hook-tip
2) Small Magpie#moths #mothing #MothsMatter #lepidoptera #entomology #conservation #wildife #nature #animals #naturalworld #alttext

The McDonald Fire has taken off on the Tanana Flats southeast of Fairbanks and is spreading quickly westward in the strong winds. Fire's not a threat to property but smoke may become a problem. No cause posted but it's evidently on DoD land, so…

Indulged in my two fave hobbies & voted for the Green Party in the #LocalElections all before breakfast!
6.4km #run before checking, cataloguing, photographing and releasing #moths that roosted overnight. This is (rather tatty) CHINESE CHARACTER - so called because the faint silver lines on its wing are said to resemble Chinese character 山. Size of your little finger nail and mimics bird dropping to put off predators.

Rough-backed horned frog (Borneophrys edwardinae) in #Brunei. As the genus name suggests, the species is endemic to (northern) Borneo. Photo: Joremy Tony. #Borneo #wildife #amphibians #endemicspecies #wildlifephotography
