# 14 feb 14 blood moth Thanks to stho002 for the identification. Now that it has been identified there is an earlier sighting with more brown on the wings and stronger colours on the abdomen. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/170... This shows highly variable colouration although the patterns they form seem to unchanging.
Thanks Steve, did I only dream I had already thanked you? Have to stop before I get so tired
