It's true Don, but I know moths by their appearance, not by name. I'd still have to look each one up, which would leave me little time to post any records. As I learn more and maybe have more time, I might improve. Please let me know if I'm overwhelming the system. I've taken 400,000 photos, about 1/2 are of Arthopods from every order, which I'm sorting, and whose names and ecology I'm trying to absorb. A dozen years ago I'd hardly taken a photo and knew nothing about insects. My knowledge is a drop in a bucket and there's an ocean out there! Help! haha
