MID-YARE: Claxton moths

28th July 2016

On Thursday I went to Claxton to meet Jim. The main aim of the morning was to do a bit of surveying at a private site nearby, but before heading off we had a look through his moth trap. The village location within the mid-Yare valley meant for a good selection of moths, both in the trap and in the bushes surrounding it. A selection of the catch are included below.

 Antler Moth
 Balsam Carpet
 Chinese Character
 Gold Triangle
Least Carpet
