Resolviendo la incógnita 🌐La polilla Galleria mellonella es capaz de detectar frecuencias de hasta 300 kHz, el doble que la segunda polilla más sensible y superior a la de cualquier murciélago, al que, debido a la física, no le serviría ni emitir ni oír ultrasonidos de mayor frecuencia. 📷cjackson #insectos #insects #Lepidoptera #polillas #moths

hastingsmothmanStill struggling a bit with very low night time temperatures, early season and lack of species diversity. Today's #MothOfTheDay is another early season regular. Small, compact, plain but appealing white pepper appearance
SMALL QUAKER
orthosia cruda
Very common. Larvae feed on sallow.

Here is a ready for take-off video of a second Blossom Underwing. You can just about make out the pink underwing.

Still very early in the season. Chilly nights = few species/numbers currently.
However, today's #MothOfTheDay is another new species for my garden.
BLOSSOM UNDERWING
Orthosia miniosa
Larvae feed on oak. Pinkish hue to underwing (see next take off video)
