The others look to have three rows of spots where bird Thu, 02 Jul 2009 14:38:55 GMT rogerfleet http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/cornwallmothgroup/message/1246 http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/cornwallmothgroup/message/1246 I've just posted a photo in 'Rogers Pics' of what seems to be a Bird-cherry Ermine (424). FW is about 12mm. Are there any similar species that I've missed this Wed, 01 Jul 2009 16:01:03 GMT Bernard Hocking http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/cornwallmothgroup/message/1245 http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/cornwallmothgroup/message/1245 Hi John no great numbers of Brooms down here, but did have 67 species of the larger moth species this morning but no rarities.
