Mothing

I've had a few quite striking night-time callers to the pub, attracted by the lights, so I've decided to give mothing a try. There are quite a few out there and they can vary in colour/shade etc. so please excuse (or correct) any errors. Here is a selection of the first few visitors. Thanks too to Les Hill (@dorsetmoths) for his help.
