For some reason I could not insert these pictures in my regular gmail before. Using the email function here in the Picasa program it seems I can. Anyway, I had only identified about 25 moth species up until the time we took these pictures. It sure was an exciting intoduction to mothing for both of us! Doug Allen Windmill Hill, SC PS We had a Christmas story happen an hour ago. I heard something at the front door. No, it wasn't Santa. One of our cats had jumped up to the wreath where there was a Carolina Wren hanging out near the black light I had glowing on the porch. I think the Carolina Wren was catching and eating my moths before I got to photograph them, because it flew back and forth on our small porch, with the cat chasing after it, and wouldn't leave. This was at 8 PM! I got the cat indoors and was able to take a closeup picture of the Carolina Wren. It was still there 5 and 10 minutes later. It finally left after about 20 minutes, and now there are a few moths out there! This is not one of those "not a creature was stirring" stories, but anyway, to all a good night.
