Does this confirm Copper Underwing?

Post by MothNoggin »

HI All
I find it difficult to get good views of hidden wings and would be grateful for any advice on how to do this easily without too much moth stress!
However after many attempts does this view confirm this is a Copper Underwing and not a Svenson's CU?
