Hi All, I took an executive decision & decided to amalgamate the Butterfly & Moth threads which may make it easier to find if it's used more!
These are the old threads from 2019 Beautiful butterflies https://community.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/f/all-creatures/200195/beautiful-butterflies-2019#pifragment-4285=1
& Mostly Moths https://community.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/f/all-creatures/198118/mostly-moths-2019/1273216#pifragment-4285=1
To start us off here are a few from the recent traps & wine rope,
this is a lovely Satelite from the 8th january
Best wishes

Hi Linda, nice photo! It's wing shape isn't right for a Pug, looks like a Red-green Carpet (newly hatched) to me.
Oh right thanks Hazel...always learning
Its actually still here!
On our walk today found this caterpillar crossing the path today, can someone provide an ID please.
