The thin edge of the Wedge...

There really hasn't been much happening of late. Cool, blustery nights with rain has put an end to any meaningful mothing. So it is with some element of desperation that I present the above moth Galgula partita, The Wedgling. Is a common moth but since it is a year tick here it is! This is a sexually dimorphic species, this being the male. The females are dark maroon and are quite attractive, but one never catches many of those. The larvae feed on wood-sorrels.

Otherwise, the only other moth in the trap was an Ipsilon Dart, though there was an Armyworm Moth fluttering around the porch light last night. It can only get better folks!!
