I sent a picture to a friend who hasn't come back to me yet, but in the mean time I looked at a few pictures and decided that it was probably a Sallow. Now you're making me uncertain, I'll wait for Nigel to get back to me a post what I hope is a definitive answer.<BR/>Thanks for looking and commenting.Tony Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01516463619239374331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1699498022364463633.post-66867520462631192792008-09-29T14:03:00.000+01:002008-09-29T14:03:00.000+01:00Hi Tony,I'm very envious of the moths you're catch...Hi Tony,<BR/>I'm very envious of the moths you're catching as I'm in land locked Surrey, so no coastal species and very few migrants.<BR/>I do get several of the Sallows however, and one that I caught yesterday I thought was a Pink-barred but looked exactly like your photo of a Sallow. Please advise.<BR/>All the best,<BR/>RichardAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
