Last night was my first for mothing here at Round Hill.  I was out for a few minutes around 10 p.m. and did manage to photograph a few moths.   Most notable for me was the Paonias myops (Small-eyed Sphinx) as I have never seen one before.  I suspect they are more common here than in Ontario.   A few others have been ID'd already - species I've seen back in Ontario where I used to moth quite a bit in summer.  I'll work on the ones without IDs as I have time.  The URL of this gallery is:
http://www.pbase.com/crocodile/round_hill_moths
Click on any of the thumbnails to see larger views of the image.  I'll be adding new images to this gallery every few days as I have time.   
If there are any members of NatureNS who keep moth records, I'd be interested in corresponding to compare records, work on IDs, etc...
