I am woefully impatient with this kind of moth and a friend suggests that I may have overlooked a newcomer, if this is a Crescent. It came a couple of weeks ago and I sidelined it as something Rustic-y. Having checked now, it does look to me like a Crescent and I'd be grateful for confirmation (or otherwise) as always. Red Underwings are profuse here just now, flying by day as well as night. Martin Wainwright, Thrupp, Oxon.
Yes, that's a Crescent
ReplyDeleteIntriguing how things vary. I'm about 25 mile NE of you and I haven't seen a single Red Underwing in my garden! In fact the last one I had here was 12 years ago.
