Green-patched looper (Diachrysia balluca), one of our prettiest local moths! Check out the metallic green color, and the long scales decorating its thorax! Also, a bonus snap of yours truly photographing this moth. I'm always amazed how I find myself in the most awkward positions when photographing.

Just a few regulars in the trap this morning, nothing special. So here's another shot of the Burnished Brass from the other day.

Burnished Brass [Diachrysia chrysitis] with Parasitic Wasp takeover (I think). Interesting to watch. Any help with identification? Never seen this behaviour before. @norfolkmoths.bsky.social @timstrudwick.bsky.social

For #MacroMonday, a slightly different image of a Burnished Brass on the underside of a ribwort plantain leaf, which I chose to use because it was autumnal-looking.

Vandaag voor #ElkeDagEenInsect eens een nachtvlinder; de koperuil (Diachrysia chrysitis).

My first Burnished Brass of the year. The temperature has somewhat decreased, but the #moths are still becoming lively more quickly than usual. #teammoth

Oh, I have so many favourites! Here is another one - The burnished brass, Diachrysia chrysitis. This unmistakeable moth has a spectacular brassy, metallic sheen on the forewings.

Yesterday's NFY Burnished Brass.

When I went outside to set up the trap last night, I found a new garden moth in the greenhouse: a Maiden's Blush. The previous evening, in addition to the trap in the garden, I had set a second one there in the hopes of attracting more moths. #teammoth
