MASTER'S OF DISGUISE.

Tonight I would like to show you two surprises I found in my moth trap last year. I almost discarded these as an old leaf and a broken twig and you can see why, in their environment they are almost impossible to find and photograph.
On the left is the Scorched Wing Moth, whilst on the right is the Buff Tip Moth which resembles a piece of Silver Birch.
It never fails to impress me how most things in nature can blend in with their surroundings for protection.
