11 moths of 4 species in the light trap this morning. 6 of these were Dot-and-Dash Swordgrass (Xylena curvimacula). The most I’ve had of this species in one night. There were 3 Speckled Green Fruitworm (Orthosia hibisci) and the new species for the year was, a not unexpected, Western Swordgrass Moth (Xylena thoracica).
Added a photo from a birding trip last week NE of Calgary. Always nice to see the return of Long-billed Curlews.
