Beautiful Hook Tip

Arrondissement de Bziers, Occitanie, France

Copenhagen, Hovedstaden, Denmark

A great night again, and thus I have not had the time to count all of the moths. Far far more than the previous night witha minimum temperature of 16c and no wind it was perfect. Clears skies does not seem to be having an impact at the moment, with the high temperatures thatare persisting.I have just listed the moths that were new ones for the garden and year.Some superb species including Varied Coronet, Leopard Moth, Rustic, Light Arches, Beautiful Hook-tip and another Red-necked Footman, presumed a migrant as they are not a resident moth here in Hertfordshire.I'll let the list and the photos do the talking as I am shattered (and I am out again tonight!)17 new species for the garden (12 Macro - 5 Micro)5 new species for the year (2 Macro - 3 Micro) 122 Macros and 69 Micros bringing the grand total upto 191 moth species for the year so far.
