it rained last night so i didnt get much in the moth trap this morning :( still got one poplar hawk moth though! they're so Textured
one of three large yellow underwings (Noctua pronuba) in the trap this morning. the others were even less cooperative than this guy 😅
don't worry, i let him out of the sample pot after this!
I'm loving all your moth catches! Could you show us what the trap you're using looks like?
Sure! Here's a pic of my moth trap - it's a skinner trap from AngLeps. Best birthday present I ever got <3
The actinic lamp attracts the moths, and once they're done hanging out - chatting, having cocktails and a game of canasta or whatever moths do - they go down the chute into the egg trays in the box, get away from the light by going under the trays, and have nap.
They probably just want to sleep it off, but at 6am I wake them up to count them, record them, and then release them away from the trap... Because the local birds wait nearby and will eat tasty moths that hang around. At daybreak from March to October you can find me outside, stood on a garden chair, shooing away any moths that are resting on the shelter roof before the birds get to them!
I can only put my trap out out once the risk of winter storms is past, because I don't have a fixed shelter. It goes in a temporary shelter that's like an open-sided tent. I also have to turn it off if it rains, because moths will get trapped in any water that pools on the shelter roof.
The two garden chairs are enough to block the light shining in my and my neighbours windows at night - I live in an urban area. So I need to be considerate! But you'd be amazed how many moths visit, even in town. I've recorded more than 170 species since I got the trap.
