New Airplane for the Yard List...


Yet another quiet night on the moth front. I did catch the plume moth above - Platyptilia carduidactyla. I'd only seen this one once before (Brooklin in October a few years back) so this was a welcome addition to the old back yard list. James calles this bunch of tricky long-legged micros "airplane moths" due to way they hold their wings at rest. Not a bad description really...
