July Highflyer

A common moth at this time of the year, particularly on the moor, the July Highflyer is highly variable going from a very dark solid green to various shades producing some quite striking patterns and colours.

Last night's catch

Whilst on Beeley Moor last night I picked up this striking example of the very varable July Highflyer. The trap at home produced Grey Arches and Single Dotted Wave otherwise numbers were low with current temperatures.

Home - first July Highflyer of the year

Quiet again overnight with a minimum temperature of only 6 Centigrade but July Highflyer was new for the year, not the most striking specimen of this variable moth. Also: Yellow Shell, Freyer's Pug, Foxglove Pug, Dark Arches, Flame Shoulder, Pale-shouldered Brocade, Heart and Dart 19 and Ingrailed Clay 4.
