More from outer space



I have a had a busy time today cos I had to report on the coal train hijack at Drax power station. But before I left (at 5.30 aaagh), I checked the trap and found this sinister looking beast. Actually from on top he (or she) is another very brown, very indistinguishable specimen. But every moth has his (or her) intriguing side, as this shows.

Hello martin, I never had you down as a moth man. Is there no end to your multimedia talents?

Hi Sheila! I'm not very expert on moths - every year I send a long list of pics with my guesses to a great Wizard of Mothery in North Yorkshire called Charles Fletcher (of the Yorkshire Moth Group) and he kindly and patiently tells me where I've gone wrong. But I really enjoy trying (as with all our new technology at the G)
