Stockgrove CP: 26/08/11 - Feathered Gothic

After another rain soaked day I joined a VC30 moth-meet at Stockgrove. It was already misty, cold, and expectations were low - we weren't disappointed on that front  ! There were very few moths around as the temperatures plummeted. The star of the show was a Feathered Gothic.

Seurat and Van Gogh may have used the technique of pointillism, but nature got there first, as seen in this shot of Ypsolopha parenthesella.
