Best of haul from #mothbox this beauty - an ‘eyed hawkmoth’. When they reveal their underwings they have a big beautiful blue eye which is to scare off predators. 2nd (poor) pic you can just see eye revealed after it was released into the hedge.#moths @thebedsock

Best of #mothbox April. A ‘Swallow prominent’ (Lesser?) - there were a few of these and a ‘Pebble prominent’. Now seeing butterflies around the garden too. #moths

Best of August #mothbox new to us (but common apparently) the Mother of Pearl moth, in the 1st photo you can see the slight pearly irridescence on its wing. Also the ever popular Poplar Hawkmoth showing its colours!

Best of saturday night’s #mothbox was this enormous Privet Hawkmoth. Too big to go in the viewer in the viewing cannister it settled for posing on a rusty metal mushroom then resting on my skirt until it eventually flew off. #MothsMatter

Marvellous beetle in the mothbox - haven’t looked up what it is. Too busy to do macro photos but not bad detail anyway. It suddenly flew/jumped at me & I nearly dropped the camera! #mothbox #dorset

Slightly disappointing #mothbox. Couple of brimstone, a pebble prominent, two muslins (the grey one) and a mullein I just found hanging on my skirt. Otherwise just a few of those ones that look exactly the same as the other ones.

Poor haul from last night’s #mothbox - mostly underwings of various kinds. Best of box were ‘Orange Frosted’, ‘L-album wainscot’ and the last one (pale yellow with brown markings) which I have been unable to identify. Any ideas? #moths #dorset

wouldn’t say these were best of the #mothbox, we had several elephant hawkmoths & ‘poplar hawkmoths’ but I’ve posted those before. These are a ‘small emerald’ & a ‘common footman’. The footman bears looking at in close detail for the amazing textures on its wings #dorset #moths

Finally got the #mothbox out again. Big haul, 5 elephant hawkmoths, a poplar hawkmoth, numerous other (about 100 ish in all) and this beauty - a swallowtailed moth. #MothsMatter
