A less well populated trap last night in the cool evening featuring little of note. There was a single lovely Ruby Tiger, all smart and fresh.
@mothiduk.bsky.social is it possible to say whether this Coleophora is serratella please? Thanks.

Dia esplèndid a la Serratella (l'Alt Maestrat), amb la mar de fons.
Des de setembre s'acumulen uns 1.000 l/m² ací i es nota en el paisatge. Foto de Vicent Ibáñez.

Another highlight of this week’s Hampshire trip was cases of the rare Coleophora vibicella (Large Gold Case-bearer) on Dyer’s Greenweed. At 2cm long they are the largest Coleophora cases in the UK, 3x the size of C. serratella cases. #teammoth

Hoy me he dado un paseo por el Maestrazgo de Castellón y he visto campos, visitado ermitas y hasta le he sacado una foto a un dolmen

A couple of hours out pre-work added three to the year list (now on 86).
Pebble Hook-tip & Eriocrania sangii were nice and photogenic, Adela reaumurella much less so.
The inevitable Coleophora serratella cases also seen.

Found a population of Coleophora serratella on birches in the garden today, and shortly afterwards an ichneumon wasp sp. predating one!. Any help on wasp ID appreciated 🙏 #teammoth

Checking Alder for feeding windows, so was quite excited to find the first ones. Was hoping for possible Coleophora alnifoliae but pretty ive just got a serratella. #teammoth

Work today was brightened by a Sedge Warbler in full song from a tiny patch of manicured bushes outside an adjacent warehouse, a Chocolate-tip, an Eriocrania sangii mine and some Coleophora mines on Hornbeam (no case found though the smart money has to be on serratella). #teammoth

A brief window of opportunity allowed me to get the annual Emperor fix. Never sat still, but this is by far the best pic I've ever got of one. May get a whole one in focus one day!
Also my first (seven) Coleophora serratella cases of the year.

Found a couple of leaf mines on our morning walk in the forest over the road from us in Mundford VC28 this morning. Both on Birch saplings, I think they are Stigmella betulicola (though seems early to be mining?) and Coleophora serratella? @vc28wildlife.bsky.social #teammoth #norfolkmoths

Had a couple of hours poking around birches this morning.
In pic order: lots of Coleophora serratella cases and signs; Incurvaria pectinea mines only found once; Eriocrania unimaculella q common; E. sangii less so. Also a single E. semipurpurella found.
Boosts the Hants year list to 139 .
