Hi Carol,
great photos!
do you know about National Moth Week? it's actually a global project that focus on moths and biodiversity. Karen from Project Noah suggested that i contact you about this cool project. everyone can participate, and moth week events are registered in 14 countries and 44 US states! I hope you will consider registering a 'moth night' with us! it does not have to be much, it can be just you at home. you can see more information at www.nationalmothweek.org. you can write directly to me at liti[at]nationalmothweek.org. i looked for your group on facebook and found a few 'nature lovers' - can you send me more detailed fb info? thanks.
