Re: Kitten Question
Hi,
I'd say your moth is a Sallow Kitten.

I'd say your moth is a Sallow Kitten.

Re: Kitten Question
Sallow for me, as well. (Irregular edge of cross-line and relatively faint black edging).
Here's a link to a discussion of the topic which I raised a month or two ago.

Re: Kitten Question
Now I'm having second thoughts !
Re: Kitten Question
Just double-checked against the pictures on the Norfolk Moths website, and I would say Sallow on the grounds that the black outer edge of the cross line isn't black enough, or broad enough, for Poplar.
Thanks for posting the pictures !
