Picture: Common Heath Moth		  
New Comment: Magnificent views!
by paddyhillsbagger  28 Apr 2024
Picking herself up at Knock Airport allowed a spot of hill bagging.
There were a lot of small brown moths flying around the rather steep & rough heather on Crucknaree.
Eventually managed to photograph one. Turns out it's a Common Heath Moth. One of the day flying moths that occur in Ireland.
An easy hill to bag with magnificent views. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1147/comment/24187/
