Hawkmoths

Hawkmoths are the big spectacular ones, always a joy to find in the trap.
At this time of year, we all get excited at the prospect of catching migrant moths.
National Moth Night was good to me, because I caught my first ever Convolvulus Hawkmoth, illustrated here, and it's a BIG one.
In case you are wondering, all the moths are released safely into the vegetation after being identified.
