He also gets many moths that I have yet to see, and is a great resource for this area. I also have a collection of moths on flickr.com. Most of those I have posted have been identified, with a few exceptions. I have my Knox Co moths in this collection: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8343980@N06/sets/72157622665054062/ I haven't counted the species, since there are more that one shot of some moths. I am also using a new set for 2010 Knox Co Moths: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8343980@N06/sets/72157623616759316/ to make it easier to keep up with first of year moths, but all these will also be posted in the Knox Co Moths set. I welcome any comments or corrections to my ID's, and plan to post some moths from last year that I haven't yet ID'd, since there are some great experts on our tn-moths list. It's great to see so many people interested these days! Audrey Hoff Knoxville, TN Audrey Hoff I think that I think, therefore I am.......maybe.......

For folks like myself who are just starting out, it is encouraging to know that time and patience will get you there. Would be interesting to know how many others out there have collections of moth photos and the number of photos in their collections. If the proposed Tennessee list of 1,400 is anywhere close to accurate, we all have a long way to go. Thanks to those who help us newcomers with photo id's. The moth world is so vast that just identifying each species is almost overwhelming. Thanks also to those who post their findings with name and Hodges #. I continue to add to our new state list as things come in.

These are mostly from my home in Johnson City,TN (Washington County), with some from Steele Creek Park in Bristol, TN (Sullivan County). Not every photo is identified to exact species.
