Sponsor a Moth for the Atlas

Steve Wheatley, BC's Regional Officer for the south-east, sent out the message below this morning regarding the campaign to raise money for the forthcoming Atlas:

Hi,

 

As you probably know, Butterfly Conservation is running the Sponsor a Moth campaign in preparation for the Macro Moth Atlas. There are a few regional top priority species that still need a sponsor:

 

·         Barberry Carpet (Oxon)

·         Shoulder-striped Clover (Heaths, especially New Forest)

·         Silvery Arches (Heaths)

·         Pale Shining Brown (Oxon)

·         Sloe Carpet (difficult to pin down – pardon the pun)

 

Let’s try to get them all sponsored! Please can you promote these in your area and to your moth recorder contacts?  Click on this link to the BC website.

 

Please help. I can’t really afford to sponsor them all. I’ve already sponsored Clay Fan-foot – a favourite of mine and much overlooked.

 

Best wishes,

 

Steve
