(2179) Pine Beauty (Panolis flammea) - Flickr - Bennyboymothman
Well I seem to have escaped any of the April fool's shenanigans this year...4 days already into April it really is frightening how quickly the year is going already.
Though they say the months go bye faster the older you get, so in comparison to most moth'ers mine must be just trickling by at the moment! Sorry for my stereo-typical moment there!
It really is hard to get the younger generation interested in things other than I this and E that (ipad and err something else).
Back to moths
Pine Beauty was a lovely new moth for the garden, I have been expecting one of these, as about 200ish metres down the bridlepath we have a small conifer plantation.
New for year were Streamer (which wouldn't stay still for it's photo-shoot so a pot shot is all I can offer) and the micro Caloptilia semifascia.
Apart from that it was business as usual.
