Last night was just spot on conditions for moth lighting in Ōtautahi-Christchurch, NZ. It was mild, still, cloudy; just what moths like, and a stark contrast to the previous three nights of blustery winds.

Heaps of moths showed up to my mercury vapour lamp, and I've now got hundreds of photos to sort through (and I'm quite tired). Here's a quick taste.
