2022 May 06 morning<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/strong>   <\/strong>Jochen Möhr set us a puzzle yesterday with photographs from Metchosin of the undersides of several moths – the geometry of the situation prevented him from getting his camera to the other side of the window to photograph the uppersides.  Libby Avis and Jeremy Tatum had a go at identifying them, and, considering how difficult it is to identify moths from their undersides alone, we came to remarkably good agreement – although our proposed identifications remain tentative.<\/p>\n
