It was about one year ago that my interest in moths began. I know that last May
I bought John Himmelman's Discovering Moths and that led me to begin
photographing and idenytifying them. I really got serious last August when I
bought a head lamp so both hands could be free for taking photos. Until then I
carried a small flashlight that I sometimes held in my mouth -- anything to get
a shot! I am rapidly closing in on 300 moths for our yard, having just
identified #286. Here are the latest ones that I have seen:
Eastern Tent Caterpillar Moth, 7701
Esther Moth, 6655
Flowing-line Bomolocha, 8441
Lesser Maple Spanworm Moth, 6273
Donacaula melinellus, 5316
Trumpet Vine Moth, 5563
Orange-tufted Oneida Moth, 5588
Red-shawled Moth, 5526
Harnessed Tiger Moth, 8169
Gray Furcula, 7937
Black-dotted Maliattha, 9049
Rosy Maple Moth, 7715
Brown Scoopwing, 7653
I am always glad when night falls so I can get out and discover a few more.
