On the beach, near the tide mark... Took it to higher ground.

large Orocrambus

Drawn to light. 10 degrees, humid, light winds.

Looks like Anisoplaca achyrota, but size of Scoparia halopis and different shape (e.g. not straight at terminal area). Will attach more photos later.

on washing in the garage, thought it was dead, but it wasn't

Unusual 'white' Gadira acerella. Not seen like that before.

tiny and quick

Very dark moth. It did not settle.

Something I haven't seen before... (?)

Second time I have seen (and photographed) a marsh crake at Hawksbury Lagoon. This one was right 'below' the track, along the lagoon and in saltmarsh ribbonwood.

Present for half an hour at light, but never settled...

Drawn to light. 2 of 2. Good match for LCR images. The only other obs recorded on iNat by Brian Patrick made from same area. In the company of @Carey_Knox_Southern_Scales.

Here's a new species for me (?). Very lifely. Small, 5-6 mm long. Potato tuber moth?

Very dark moth, sluggish in its movements, rather big (> any scopariinae present)

Some 'old' photos taken at Wilsons Rd saline area.

At least 30 plants. Flowering had just started. Growing in a weedy kettlehole (Carex leporina, Juncus effusus) - plants restricted to a small area of turf, with Galium perpusillum.

Drawn to light.

This moth had me as excited as any lizard ever has! 10 photos. Drawn to light. Now, I hope to locate some more local sites over the next month.

Only the first one this year...

...just before landing on my head.... unpleasant!

Backyard at home. Drawn to light

Haven't seen this Genus yet in Waikouaiti. Had T. agrionata regularly in Macandrew Bay. This one doesn't look like that species.

Drawn to light. Several of these small (6mm forewing) moths have appeared on recent evenings.
