Some Birch feeding Eriocraniidae
A look at our garden Birches produced a number of Eriocraniidae mines. I took a few for closer examination. That produced two species, Eriocrania sangii and Eriocrania semipurpurella. I am going to attempt to breed E. sangii, but it is notoriously hard to do so.

Emperor Moth to Pheromone Lure
I set up the EMP pheromone lure in the garden this afternoon. I was just packing up, after about 40 minutes of waiting, when a male Emperor Moth flew in. It was quickly netted and stuck in the fridge to calm down for photography. A stunning moth!
