December moths at last

Male December moth
Female December moth
After the cold spell it was nice to see my first December moths of the year (just). Six came to an outside light 4 males and 2 females one of which laid some eggs in the pot I had put her in.

Nice one David. I have seen Winter Moths in various locations over the last couple of days - incredible how quickly they've responded to the milder weather.

Hi David, really lovely shots. I've seen lots of moths in the lanes whilst driving the past couple of nights.
