Herding cats...

Not been blogging for ages but still very active on the Lepidoptera 'hunting'.

To kick start the blog, a few larval finds from this season:

Wormwood (Cucullia absinthii)

Streamer (Anticlea derivata)

Vapourer (Orgyia antiqua)

Yellow-tail (Euproctis similis)

Brown-tail (Euproctis chrysorrhoea)

Another vestigial winged wonder

Reared this female Vapourer from a caterpillar found a couple of weeks ago. I never cease to be fascinated by the evolutionary story behind this adaptation...
