Mothing at Ojibway - Aug 24th 2018

Tom Preney pointed out this beautiful Darling Undwing moth with a purple gloss to its wings

Between 9-11pm tonight, I joined the Windsor Essex Field Naturalists for an evening of Mothing!

Quick Summary:

• Sweetheart Underwing (Most abundant underwing tonight)
• Widow Underwing (Mono-chromatic beauty)
• Darling Underwing (Purple tinged underwing!)
• Pelecinid Wasp
• Several unknown species!

*Just a little editor's note that I "tagged" my "Widow Underwing" images with the word "Window Underwing"... My bad... I'm too lazy to re-export the images!


Good Mothing!

The Widow Underwing is a monochromatic beauty with a black and white underwing!

The Underwing of an Underwing!
