There were two new moths today. The campion is very similar to the lychnis, so I try to check it if possible. The markings a slightly different but the campion also has a purplish-pink hue. It’s a very striking moth as is my new micro today. Catoptria pinella is seriously smart.


New species for July 8th:
Moths: campion, catoptria pinella
TOTALS TO DATE:
Birds = 206
