Wow! I am thankful for the weather being good overnight for Moth Night 2022 and I’m immensely relieved for the soft refreshing rain that we enjoyed for much of the morning. I took my Moth Night Moth Count last night. My favourite moth that I found this morning was the Privet Hawk Moth.

Moth Night is a fun event; it’s free to take part and open to everyone! Most moths are night flying insects; they’re out and about doing their thing, while we’re usually tucked up indoors. Consequently, many people miss out on seeing even a single species of moth, during the year; this is a great shame, as moths are incredibly beautiful and very interesting creatures.
All I can think about is moths today! I’ve had a really exciting Moth Night. I can’t wait to show you the beautiful moths I found in my moth trap! I took all of these pictures during my Moth Night 2021 Moth Count….
