  Here are some moth pictures from yesterday morning from Jochen M\u00f6hr in Metchosin.<\/p>\n

   Over the past few weeks we have managed to accumulate several photographs of unidentified Hymenoptera.  Owing to the efforts of Sean McCann and Libby Avis, to whom we are most grateful, we now have partial identifications of some of them.  I repeat the photographs here, this time labelled.<\/p>\n
