Mothing Monday 17th July - Tuesday 18th July 2017

After an evening of bird ringing, I set the moth trap and the trail camera, well the trail camera revealed nothing but the moth trap came up with some goodies.

Some nice moths and a couple of beetles.

Broad-bordered Yellow Underwing

Pebble Prominent

Ruby Tiger

Ear moth species, will need dissecting to identify correctly

Common Dor Beetle (awaiting confirmation as its a "local" species
