With
a winter that went on and on and on, it seemed we'd
never get to this point, but here it is -- the first
Moth of the Week for 2005. It's a Ruby
Quaker (Orthosia rubescens) of the Noctuid subfamily
Hadeninae. It's not one that I'd expect to start off
with -- most of my records are from the second half of
April. But there it was at Muttontown Preserve, Nassau
County, April 6. |
