Last but not least was another Winter Moth which was resting on my woodshed window yesterday.

December at Maenol....brrrr!
So far this month I've clocked up four moths. A December Moth and a Winter Moth came to the porch light on Sunday evening - I had decided not to bother trapping; in retrospect it would have probably been more worthwhile than on Monday evening when I put two actinic traps out and both were empty of moths in the morning. However, there was one moth on an adjacent wall, I believe that it might have been a Scarce Umber, being a carbon copy of the ones which have appeared recently on the Ceredigion and Glamorgan sites, but confirmation would be welcome.

I have n`t looked at the moth blog for ages!
ReplyDeleteYour scarce umber i/d looks ok to me, Chris.
Thanks Ian. You're not alone, most moth-ers seem to have gone into hibernation along with most moths!
