So it's been roughly a year since I started recording the moths that I found, and the first two species were the Brimstone and the Scalloped Hazel, which resulted in two very rushed photos, taken using a phone, and without any thought about lighting, structure etc. (photos 9 & 10) Now, a year later, I see a big improvement, not only in capturing details but also in artistic value. I'm slowly heading to where I want to be.🤔🙂 Obviously I'll still need to rely on my phone occasionally. After all, carrying a camera around with me at work would be awkward and cumbersome, but hopefully I'll have more of the better shots. #mothoftheday #mothphotography #moth #mothing #moths #mothsofig #mothsarecool #mothsarebeautiful #mothsofinstagram #mothsandbutterflies #butterfliesandmoths_ #ukmoths #ukwildlife #wildlifeonyourdoorstep #lepidoptera #lepidopteraphotography #photographingmoths #photosofmoths #brimstonemoth #scallopedhazel

We came across this really beautiful caterpillar on Saturday! 🐛 I had a quick look in one of my vintage insect books and found the ID straight away. The Latin name has since been updated, and it's now known as 🧬 Euthrix potatoria, the Drinker moth 🦋, apparently named because this caterpillar likes to drink the dew drops from grass. What a cutie! He was so fuzzy that I couldn't tell which bit were his eyes 🤔 We moved him away from the path so he didn't get trodden on. . #entomology #lepidopterology #lepidoptera #euthrixpotatoria #drinkermothcaterpillar #drinkermoth #visitthelakes #visitthelakedistrict #westernlakes #westernlakedistrict #ennerdale #visitcumbria #springwatch #bbcspringwatch #insectsofbritain #insectsofeurope #caterpillarsofinstagram #caterpillarsoftheworld

A warm, still night over the weekend and a trio of Poplar Hawk-moths, their unmistakable shapes in the moth trap – the adult moths don’t eat at all in their adult guise, so they are quite bulky to start with; these look pretty pristine, so likely newly emerged - probably the most common of the UK’s hawk-moths it is regarded as common and widespread … #poplarhawkmoth #Laothoepopuli #Sphingidae #mothtrap #homemademothtrap #diymothtrap #mothsmatter #savemoths #savebutterflies #moths #Lepidoptera #britishmothsandbutterflies #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #insect #insects #insectsofinstagram #insectphotography #mothsofinstagram #gardenphoto #gardenphotography #gardensofinstagram #inmygarden #mygarden #wildlifegarden #gardenwildlife #cotswolds #olympusuk #olympuscamera #omsystems

Orthoclydon praefectata (flax window maker), is a moth of the Geometridae family, endemic to New Zealand. If you've ever looked closely at the leaves of native flax (Phormium tenax), you will often notice holes or clear patches in the center of the leaf. This is caused by the caterpillar of this species which feeds nocturnally on the under-surface of a flax leaves, leaving the top colourless layer, forming a ‘window’. . . . #nzmoths #lepidoptera #nzentomology #insects #newzealand #flax #moths #aoteroa

💙🧡 Always the best feeling to see these gorgeous Common Blues out and about once more. Of course we didn’t spot them whilst on the official transect walk but I had a hunch they should be around so went back to check and ta-dah! ➡️ With an added bonus of them already securing next year’s population!

I attended the opening night of Illustrating Nature at the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History and was super inspired by all the amazing art - it made me want to put to paper an idea that's been floating around in my head for a little while. I've only recently started looking at butterflies and have been enamored with the blues - a group of very similar small blue butterflies. This is an incomplete guide, but these are the four species I've learned so far with the help of "Butterflies of Monterey County." Hopefully as I find and photograph more I will be able to update this! #naturesketch #sketchbookdrawing #naturedrawing #watercolorsketch #naturejournal #naturejournaling #watercolor #watercolorpainting #sketch #sketching #sketchbook #sketchbookart #naturalhistoryart #butterfly #butterflies #lepidoptera #lepidopterology #lepidopterist #californiabutterflies #butterfliesofcalifornia #montereybutterflies #speciesidentification #infographic #fieldguide

le Piéride craie ou Ascia monuste virginia est un papillon de jour emblématique de la zone américaine et particulièrement aux petites Antilles. C'est un grand papillon blanc sur la face supérieure, avec l'apex des ailes antérieures bordé de noir. Le revers est similaire chez la femelle, alors que chez le mâle, l'aile postérieure et le bord de l'aile antérieure sont jaune clair. Les antennes se terminent en massues de couleur bleue. #insect #insectphotography #butterfly #butterflies #Asciamonustevirginia #guadeloupe #lepidoptera #pieridae

What's going on with Tobago moths? In 2017 entomologist, Matthew Cock, published the first checklist of moths for Tobago comprising of 355 species. 3 years later in 2020, Matthew used the observations of a fellow naturalist, Matt Kelly, to increase that number by 45. Since then, Matthew has been compiling observations made every year and publishing them annually. Published in 2021, was an addition of only 11 species but observations spiked later that year and an additional 54 species was published in 2022. In 2022 I began visiting Tobago to collect data myself and in 2023, 65 new records of moths were added to the checklist. By this time Matthew had already started including contributing naturalists as co-authors on the paper. The greatest additions thus far were made in 2023 when someone living in Tobago began uploading moth observations to iNaturalist almost every night. With his contributions, 128 species were added to the checklist. Since his publication in 2017, the species numbers of moths on Tobago has nearly doubled to 653 species and now stands closer to Matthew's estimated count of over 700 species. #moth #mothsofinstagram #lepidoptera #insect #insectsofinstagram #bug #butterfly #wildlifeconservation #wilderness #wildlife_perfection #wildlifephotography #nature_perfection #naturephotography #nature #nikon #natgeo #macro #entomology #mariposa #science #biology #beautiful #southamerica #trinidadandtobago #ourplanetdaily #instagood #bbcearth #caterpillar #animal #photooftheday

A first for me, a Narrow-Bordered Bee Hawk-Moth. Was hoping to catch up with one of these (or one its broader bordered cousins) one day and today was the day. They are found across Europe in May and June and are pretty scarce so pretty chuffed to have seen one. #butterfly #butterflies #savebutterflies #moth #moths #ukbutterflies #britishmoths #mothsofinstagram #mothphotography #insect #insects #insectphotography #insectsofinstagram #nature #naturephotography #natureofinstagram #wildlife #wildlifephotography #wildlifeofinstagram #lepidoptera #canon #canonphotography #canonr7 #bbcwildlife #bbcspringwatch #narrowborderedbeehawkmoth #hawkmoth

Managed to see 7 seasons firsts today with @notesfromthemeadow and Colin Kemp. We saw several Brown Argus of which this was the pick of the bunch. Great little butterflies. #butterfly #butterflies #savebutterflies #ukbutterflies #britishbutterflies #butterfliesofinstagram #butterflyphotography #insect #insects #insectphotography #insectsofinstagram #nature #naturephotography #natureofinstagram #wildlife #wildlifephotography #wildlifeofinstagram #lepidoptera #canon #canonphotography #canonr7 #brownargus #lycaenidae

lol it is time Simba. 🐛 I’ve never gotten this many eggs so early. I guess with the rain and nice weather it gave the monarchs a good opportunity to be fruitful and multiply. Which is good, because their numbers were scary awful this winter. #MonarchSeason has begun! #raisingmonarchs #monarchbutterfly #citizenscience #lepidoptera #savethemonarchs
