I got in one (1) night's moth-ing before the weather turned again, but fingers crossed for tomorrow 💖🦋

Until we're past the gales, here's some super-cute moths from previous years to remind you that:

- moths are beautiful

- they pollinate ur plants at night

- their caterpillars are essential food for baby birds

- they're a crucial part of many ecosystems, with life cycles connected to those of trees and wildflowers, birds, and lots of other invertebrates

The moths in the pics are: small emerald, blood vein, small blood vein, tree lichen beauty, box tree moth, orange swift, scorched wing, riband wave & willow beauty, brimstone moth.

Thank you from the Moth Promotional Board ✨🦋✨

My brain: You have so many tight deadlines. So many things on your weekly schedule. So many important jobs. You have to get important work done!!!

Gouache painting of long-tailed tits for the upcoming book about my local nature reserve.

Long-tailed tits make stretchy nests from a base of moss and spider silk. On the outside they’re covered in lichen for camouflage and inside are lined with feathers for cosiness!
