More Moths and More!

Photo-5
Here's this year's set-up of moth lights. Two of them are moth lights from BioQuip –the Mercury vapor light on the left and the ultra-violet "night collecting light" with the bluish light above it. I also use a cfl blacklight and a halogen light.

Each of the lights seems to attract admirers, including some guy in an orange T-shirt.

I have noticed that as the night wears on, more moths arrive.

Here's an assortment of eight shapes and sizes from earlier this week, taken with a macro lens. I really like the yellowish one, though I am not 100 percent sure it's a moth.
