Red underwing moth copyright Richard Lord
Received an email from Guernsey Wildlife. The moth photo was taken by Richard Lord. He says, ”The red underwing is a large moth. It was seen flying during the day by the National Trust Folk and Costume Museum in Saumarez Park on 26 August. On 1 September it was found dead on the floor of one of the museum rooms.” Submitted by Richard Lord. He hosts a Facebook group page called Guernsey Wildlife. Guernsey is closer to France than the Brithish Crown but belongs to the UK.
I have seen this moth in Northwest Wisconsin, USA. I even saved the wings once that previously belonged to a living being and now was gone. I picked up the wings and tenderly placed them under glass to hopefully identify the moth one day. Now I know it is the Red Underwing Moth. I have always called her beautiful.
