The wonderful world of . There are the most amazing shapes and colours from last night's trap including:

1) Pale Prominent
2) Iron Prominent
3) Spectacle
4) Marbled Green

Side on view of pale buff-coloured Pale Prominent moth facing right. The moth has very jagged looking edges resembling a very pale piece of broken bark. There is a small prominent tuft poking up with a dark edge, and a tail pokes out the back. The wings are folded tight and flat against its abdomen and have darker shades and dots to give it bark texture.
Overhead view of a dark triangular Iron Prominent moth, largely iron grey with ginger or rust coloured flecks and a dark jagged band crossing its wings halfway down. Its wings are slightly outstretched revealing a hint of grey underwing. It has two feathered antennae left and right of its head.
Face on view of a Spectacle Moth. Dark coloured with two light rings, giving the very distinct appearance of wearing a pair of spectacles. A punk-like tuft pokes up from above.
Overhead view if a Marbled Green moth, Triangular shaped with a marbled or round-shaped mosaic effect on the wings, of different shades of green,, each shape edged in black.

@Ageric Spectacle is one of my faves ... I wonder what evolutionary process made it go, "Yes, I think looking like a well-educated punk is the way to go?"
