Firstly I must apologise for the photgraphy, I really must read up on taking close up images.
Last Sunday my good pals Chris and Anne, rang to say they had a large moth in th garden that was barely alive. This turned out to be a rather shabby Elephant Hawk-moth.
Elephant Hawk-moth, Portchester 5th July 2009
Last night in my makeshift moth trap, my upstairs bathroom, I had two moths that varied, but I believe are both Willow Beauty.
Willow Beauty(1), Portchester 08 July 2009
Willow Beauty(2), Portchester 08 July 2009
These colours are pretty accurate, interesting how much they varied.
Steve I promise to work on my indoor shots.
